It also includes all kinds of basic editing tools like cutting, copying, erasing. It supports the majority of audio formats, such as wav, mp3, Ogg, wma, ac3, flac and aiff. It is a free, open-source software with GNU licensing to record and edit audio, working directly with the graphics of the sound waves. There are many tools in this category, but few so comprehensive and efficient as Audacity.
