I'm an experienced Programmer/Analyst and I'm fluent in many languages, but C++ isn't one of them, yet.
I've got a project that involves .wav audio files. I need to evaluate 16bit .wav files for amplitude and be able to parse out sections of the .wav files and create new files of the selected sub-sections, based on amplitude.
Is C++ a good language to use for this type of project? Any thoughts about Microsoft's Visual Studio/Express C++? And do you know if I will be able to use wxWidgets with MS Express C++? Any other suggestions, based on my project outline would be appreciated.
