Check Out Audacity

There are a number of audio editing applications available, but this one stands out because it's free. Audacity is free and open source. (You can learn more about open source software by clicking here.)


Audacity enables the user to record, edit and mix audio and then export the file in a wide range of audio formats. It's a great tool to learn audio editing and mixing principles without spending lots of dough. (Please consider making a financial contribution to the project if you use the software to support its ongoing development.)
