Wavepad makes editing audio files very easy. You simply have to either open a supported audio file or record a new one using the microphone. Then you can begin editing the file and applying sound effects. And if you need some library sounds (like the laugh track often heard in sitcoms), then you can simply use the NCH Sound Library and download these sounds quickly from the WavePad’s server.

Not only it allows direct audio file editing, but it can also extract the tracks from any audio CD. You simply have to click on the Load CD button in the toolbar and it will extract all the tracks into WAV files which you can later convert into MP3 files.
