Why need a sound editor?
Everyone doesn't have an attractive voice. But even an ordinary voice can be made magical with the help of some proper tools. These things are a good recorder and a good recording software to edit the voice!
Suppose you have an amazing voice and you recorded something on your mobile phone and the mobile phone on which you recorded is not a high-end one. So the question is how your amazing voice will sound on that?
The answer you would give is, "it didn't sound like my real voice". Now suppose you don't have a good voice and you recorded something on your mobile phone. But this time suppose you are having one of the best smartphones in your hand. So the question arising is how your voice will sound on that?
"It didn't sound like my real voice. It sounds better than that!" would probably be your answer. This implies that your recorder voice's quality totally doesn't depend upon your attempt but also depends upon the device with which your record.
Similarly, a good sound editor can help to take your superb or disturbed voice to the next level.

Below are some top cons faced by a user of the software:
1. It often hangs in the middle.
2. Voice recording quality decreases with a background music.
3. Unable to convert a "high preset quality kept" saved .wave file. Problem faced with format factory.
To resolve the problem, load the .wave file in the Free Audio Editor and use "save as" to the file again. Don't keep a high preset quality while saving. Format Factory would now convert it to any extension. Have fun!A misspelled word
You might not have pondered on that misspelled word (see the screenshot below) in the Free Audio Editor 2014. It is "Effects", not "Effcets"!
I hope that new version of the software will be "misspelling free".Conclusion
