It's the best thing you can get if you want an open source audio
processing app.

I've been using it for about a year now, and I don't know of a better
freeware multi-track audio editor.

If you will be wanting to use a lot audio fx, I would recommend you also
download the VST Enabler from the plugin section of the audacity download
page

http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/

This will let you use VST plug-ins in Audacity and there are literally
hundreds of free plug-ins available. ( KVR is a good place to start looking)

Excellent. And free. The way the whole world should be.

If not everything, then at least money should be free.

I use audacity several times a week for editing small soundfiles. The
only gripe I have about it is the default noise removal tool is
something of a blunt instrument, but there is probably a plugin for it
somewhere if I'd just look hard enough.
