Audacity is a great audio editor. Very intuitive GUI and easy to learn and to teach to others. I was able to teach a musician friend of mine to be able to lay tracks, edit and splice in about 20 minutes even though had very little technical abilities. Sometimes too much is a bad thing. Trying to learn something like Pro Tools as a beginner is enough to scare someone away from digital recording/editing
