A good audio editor suitable for my needs

Hi,

I have been wondering which audio editor for the mac should I get. I deal mostly with videos and will sometimes need a good audio editor.

The tasks I might need the audio editor to do

- Fix cracks in the audio tracks
- Simple and effective interface for splitting and moving audio segments around
- Able to easily adjust the start and end of audio tracks, so I can sync up the timeline of audio and video tracks together
- Filter out certain noises
- Amply certain sounds
- Good converting/exporting capability to convert audio tracks from one format to another
- And pretty much anything else that might come up during video production and editing

I don't record or remux music. I am looking for a simple and effective interface if possible. Any suggestion is appreciated.

Thanks,

Vidhunter

Have you tried Audacity? It's a free, open source audio editor that is fairly easy to use - and you can't beat the price.

Yeah. I tried Audacity already. I didn't like it that much. It was a little buggy, and the interface wasn't that refined. So far, I have been using Sound Studios, Amadeus Pro, and Fission to decide which is better. I just wondered if there is an even better audio editing tool. I thought of trying Logic Studios, but it seems to be more suitable for music production and such.
