New Audio editing software
What do you use and are willing to recommend?

I've downloaded some .MP3 files of old radio comedy shows. They may have 5 to 10 songs or skits strung together into one file, and from some of them I'd like to "extract" one song/skit from the file. Additionally, once I'm done "extracting", I'll need to convert the file to a .WAV or .CDA file so that I can put it onto CD and play it in my car or on my home stereo system. What software will do that, preferably at a low cost.

New I use CoolEdit from Syntrillium.
They've released a few versions since I bought mine, but it's still a good editor.

New Syntrillium is no longer...:-(
Syntrillium no longer owns this; its now an (ugh!) Adobe "product"; Syntrillium itself was devouredbought by Adobe...

I'd recommend CLEAN!. Used to be by Steinberg (of Cubase fame; probably the best music editor for the PC); now owned by Pinnacle. The Steinberg folks wrote the original, but Pinnacle has cleaned up the interface in version 4.

You can get it at [link|http://www.cdw.com/shop/products/default.aspx?EDC=480619|CDW], not too expensive.

I'm using it to archive my ~750 album vinyl collection to CD.


[edit: clarification of relation betw. Adobe and Syntrillium]

New Ooh ... I did not know that.
The other product I should recommend is DC5, though I haven't actually got that. I bought a sound card from the publisher/distributor once and get an occasional newsletter from them. [link|http://www.tracertek.com/|http://www.tracertek.com/]
