re phonetics lab for Mac or PC


We would like to know what the market is for phonetics labs for the
Macintosh. We have an old fashioned lab with sonagraph, pitch meter and
other acoustic instruments, but would like to get more up-to-date
equipment. In particular we would like to hear from researchers who have
used SoundScope or other programs. In our faculty we mostly use Macs, but
if any of you know of an excellent PC-program we would like to know about
it.
Thanks.

Could someone tell me what relatively cheap software for Mac to use to see
the tonal melodies ( or convert frequencies in curves) in tone languages?
Thanks.

I am looking for recommendations on a linguistic font set for the
MacIntosh. Ideally I would like one that is not bitmapped, if such a
thing exists. Germanic characters are also a requirement. Please
e-mail me with any recommendations, as well as info on where to purchase
the fonts. Thanks!
