Audio editing software

For use with music
Editors designed for use with music typically allow the user to do the following:
 The ability to import and export various audio file formats for editing
 Record audio from one or more inputs and save the recording
 Edit the start time, stop time, and duration of any sound on the audio timeline
 Fading into/out of or in-between audio clips.
 Mix multiple sound sources/tracks, combine them at various volume levels and pan from channel to channel to one or more output tracks
 Apply simple or advanced effects or filters, including compression, expansion, flanging, reverb, audio noise reduction, and equalization to change the audio
 Playback sound (often after being mixed) that can be sent to one or more outputs, such as speakers, additional processors, or a recording medium
 Conversion between different audio file formats, or between different sound quality levels
Typically these tasks can be performed in a manner that is non-linear. Each time the edited audio is played back,  it is reconstructed from the original source and the specified editing steps.
