software/ shareware for minor mixing/editing of audio tracks?

[VA $l!m]

can anyone suggest something free or otherwise for some basic mixing/editing?

i'm trying to make some mixes, and all i really need is something to edit tracks of tunings and such. maybe some fade/ cross fade tools would be useful as well...

if anyone knows of anything out there i could get a hold of easily i'd appreciate the help.

thanks,
slim.

Adobe Audition might be a good place to start.

audacity is free and pretty easy to use...

I agree about audacity....I have just started playing around recording tracks directly into my PC, and it is very easy to edit and sync up multiple tracks

I use http://www.reaper.fm/ for recording...
overkill for what slim needs but if you aren't a mac person and want to do recording...

good question...i've only formatted wav files.

iirc TLH will convert flac/shn's to wavs

slim=clueless.
well, we'll see if i can figure it out on my own.

i did attempt to drag a shn file into it... all i noticed was that it said it imported a mp3 file. maybe it automatically converted it, i dunno.

when i get a bunch of time i'll try and tool around with this thing and hopefully get some results.

you have to go shn/flac > wav/aiff then into audacity.
