Allow me to edit out commercials anywhere in the video.
Any modern editor can do this (Adobe Premier, Sony Vegas, Final Cut etc) including light-weight (ex. Pinnacle Studio) and free editors.
After editing, it keeps the 5.1 Surround Sound.
Provided your original clip contains 5.1 channels and your editing environment is set up with (and can ...

What you need is a sequencer that can also handle audio data, or an audio suite that also handles sequencing. Collectively, these programs are known as Digital Audio Workstations, commonly abbreviated DAWs. While the term "DAW" technically refers only to audio editing (waveforms), it's very common for a DAW to also support MIDI sequencing, or to be more of a ...

Note that SyxEx data is, by its very nature, vendor specific. Supporting detailed SysEx editing would require custom work for each MIDI synth ever made. EMagic's Sounddriver did this, but was discontinued shortly after Apple bought EMagic.
You can accomplish a lot of MIDI and SysEx manipulation with Logic's environment, though it is awkward, poorly ...

You can do a basic implementation manually in any daw:
Copy the track
Pan both tracks left and right respectively and symmetrically
The dry channel should be around 18dB louder than the Haas channel
Add a time delay of 13ms-~50ms to 'Haas' channel'
Be careful how much Haas you use, it affects the tonality of the track when summed to mono.
If you have ...

An example of a specialized software to record LPs and cassettes
LP Ripper (commercial):
Optional any software that can record the line input will do, for example:
Audacity (free) (see also this link for instructions on how-to)
GoldWave (shareware)
Record the whole side and then go in a chop up into segments, and save out.

FFmpeg (wiki) is one option; you can achieve what you want either with the subtitles filter (see also here) or the drawtext filter.
The subtitles filter requires ffmpeg to be compiled with --enable-libass and drawtext requires it to be compiled with --enable-libfreetype. If you're on Linux, the former is fairly likely to be the case, though the latter may ...

With a 99% chance After Effects was used here.
As long as you plan on doing a commercial video I would avoid home video production programs like iMovie at all costs. Specially because iMovie is made for cutting video and not making animations. Thats like making a commercial in Windows Movie Maker.
There are many many talented freelancing After Effects ...

Using Quicktime Player 7 you can export any movie file as an Image Sequence
Open your .mov file using Quicktime 7
File > Export
In the Export dropdown select Movie to Image Sequence
Open the options and set the export format (eg JPEG or PNG)
If you want just the current frame leave the frames per second blank. Otherwise, enter hte videos frame rate and ...

Depending on what sorts of editing you want to do, you might be better off doing your audio editing within your video editor itself. I have used Premiere and Final Cut Pro, and both have fairly serviceable audio editing and effect processing support. For more detailed audio editing, Logic Studio has excellent support for editing audio with a reference video, ...

Apple's Logic software can accomplish this. From their manual:
Automatic Tempo Matching
The following audio files automatically match
the project tempo and will follow any tempo changes made in the global
Tempo track.
Audio recordings made in Logic Pro (7.0 and later)
For example, if you record a bass solo at 100 bpm, you can change ...

Windows Live Movie Maker is a free app that can do both audio and video fades (both in and out). You probably already have this application installed on your computer, and if you need further help I would imagine you can find a number of YouTube tutorial videos.
Once you import your video, click on the Edit tab and you'll see the audio fades immediately.

Finding non-linear editors on a computer can be really hard. The linear approach in the old days was actually a forced limitation due to the restrictions you had with tapes. You needed to add clips successively. Sure, you could make an insert but at the risk of messing up the time-base and other things.
That being said - the non-linear/linear is not the ...

I assume you want to extract sections. You can do this with ffmpeg which is multiplatform, open source, and free. This example will skip the first 12 seconds and create an output that is 10 seconds long. The video and audio will be copied instead of re-encoded, so there will be no quality loss.
ffmpeg -i input.mp4 -ss 12 -t 00:00:10.00 -c copy -map 0 ...

You can always try this one for example:

But as will all "free" software, be aware during installation if you need to opt-in or out of any added software, tool-bars and so forth.

It has been a long time since I've used Sony's Acid. From what I recall, Acid was particularly good for loop based music.
Given that, Ableton Live is probably the closest thing to Acid, though the user interface is quite different.
Traditional DAWs (Logic, Reaper, Cubase, ProTools, etc.) lay out music as a series of parallel horizontal rows, with time ...

Josh's recommendation about Apple's Logic is quite good since it is the only in-house pro audio software developed by Apple. Its essentially just an amped up version of GarageBand which comes with all new Macs.
Since no one has listed any of the others I will list all of the notable ones by a few categories and will explain the common pros and cons ...

I would seriously recommend StudioOne by Presonus. It's really good and very intuitive. Download the trial and read more here.
I find the workflow incredibly fast, it's very easy to use and comes with a decent amount of plugins, effects and sounds. The pro version also comes with melodyne :-). It hasn't got any 'bloat' so it's really quick and the shortcuts ...

UPDATE:
I may be a bit overboard on the hardware and software targets. Taking a second and third look at your example video tells me that yes there is some animation s/w but the composite level does not appear to be as intense as I first thought. In any event you won't go wrong with the h/w I recommended but if you are on a budget you may be able to scale it ...

You can also try to use Avidemux -- its free and open source program + you can use it on Windows, Linux and Mac.
Here is the documentation wiki on Avidemux, where you can find section "Scripting":

You have the minimum down already - a laptop, a DAW, and some headphones. You don't need anything else. Other things may be useful to you, but aren't necessary.
If you are classically trained, you may want notation software. But even then, a good notebook and pen will probably do just fine.
Whatever software I end up with, I'd like my process to feel a ...

You should start by sketching your idea out in Max/MSP, PureData, SuperCollider, Reaktor, or another environment designed to facilitate audio processing. Once you have demonstrated to yourself that your idea works as expected, then move on to building an actual VST plugin.
I haven't built a VST myself, but keep in mind that the core VST SDK is a C++ ...

DVDStyler is a cross platform, free DVD authoring tool. It probably has all the features you want, and works pretty good. Usage is really easy as seen on their guide.

I don't have a specific software recommendation, but I can give some advice on things that can cause this kind of problem.
Here are some things to investigate:
Make sure you have the right drivers for your audio I/O device
Use a fast hard drive - SSD if possible
If you're using a spinning-disk drive, defrag it periodically
A great way to get better disk ...

I'm sure Virtual Dub http://virtualdub.sourceforge.net/ can do what you want, though there may be simpler scripted cutters out there. Before investing too much time in the script, be sure VD can handle the particular codec(s) you'll be using.

You can use any non-linear video editor to make this, but you are in for a lot of manual work.
Time posterizing (or video strobe) is mentioned which can give you that "stop" effect, but it will not take care of the walk-cycle. For that you need to manually go in and choose each frame.
My suggestion would be to take the video sequences you need, go through ...

and divide by the total channel count
That's normally not done. You just sum the channels, and since different signals are not coherent the result has a peak level of only √n times the level of each channel. In fact, it's even less in practise (assuming music) since most of the peaks are short transients and not quite simultaneous, so the peak level of ...

"I have computers, recorders, att u-verse and an am radio"

Without looking into this in too much detail:
ffmpeg lists a fade filter which fades in/out video. You might be able to use this in conjunction with the volume change filter to effectively fade in and our the audio/video.

Well there are MANY programs that do this but what your talking about is something you want to do manually. Technically you should be able to accomplish this with Premiere Pro, and I don't understand why your having trouble due to the awesome functionality between Adobe programs.
But what you're describing is something you do not want to leave up to a ...

If you only need the basic audio editing functions (such as extract audio from video, remove unwanted part of the whole audio, convert ogg audio to mp3, etc.), you can use professional video converter. The number of separate audio editing software is not much, but most of the video converting and editing software can also edit audio perfectly.
For Mac OS, ...
