For being a free and also simple software, it is a robust and precise tool for editing audio tracks and creating multitrack projects for editing, sound design, and even sound post-production due to its various effects. It also allows recording sound from a sound card or microphone with all the technical requirements. It is easy to implement, very intuitive, and the exported tracks can be integrated with other DAW software. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Being free, it is understood that it has its limits. But if you are starting out in the world of audio and sound production in general (as a business venture or during your studies), it is a tool that supports the basic needs of editing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Its been 4-5 years of using Audacity and the most major features I used the most is background voice remove and change the audio pitch and base. I have used macros in audacity to do all this stuff in just one click. Audio amplifier filter helps me to amplify the volume without distorted the pitch. And the best part is I use it record the audio in multiple tracks. Its free and open source so I don't have to spend $$ on any monthly subscription. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

It would be great if it have more features like Adobe Audition. But as it's free it the best in its free and open source software league. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Audacity is one of the easiest music editing platforms and has been my go to for over years. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface could use a bit of an update. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Audacity is a perfect tool for Sound Designing; let me tell you why:

-Be it for a professional or a beginner, this software has all the tools you need for your next sound design

-It is straightforward to use. You can install the software, and you'll get familiar with it.

-many plugins are available for Audacity over the Internet, so you don't need to do everything by yourself. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Well, every good thing has some nasty side as well:

-The user interface of the software could have been better, in my opinion; it looks like software from the 90s while using

-sometimes, it doesn't perfectly remove noise from background

other than that this software has no issues with it Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Background noise removal and attaching two or more audio clips are the best part of audacity software. I enjoyed recording and editing my audio clips and connecting it to the presentations and eLearning. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

There is nothing to dislike in this software, and it works as you want. All the features that look for are available in the software for audio recording and editing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The interface is very smooth and intriguing! Once I got a little guidance on terminologies and how to use this program for my needs in voice-acting, I was pleased with what it's capable of! Messing with and cleaning up the audio I submit is rather fun! I also love the added tab at the end that asks if you want to extend the details of your files when exporting. This helps me keep things noted and remember my previous auditions a lot better Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

This may be something that I haven't discovered yet, but when I'm going back to the beginning of a file, it's a little time-consuming to do so. I wish there was a ''jump back to the start'' of an audio track. Right now, I create rather short tracks but I'd like to be able to head back to the beginning to make adjustments a bit easier.

user-friendly and get's down to the nitty gritty in terms of timing. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

had to watch a video to understand it but once did, was seamless! Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best thing about Audacity is its price. The second best thing is the feature set. Just because it is free does not mean it isn't powerful.

Audacity does for sound what PhotoShop does for pictures and images.

Install the package, set up audio output, and within minutes you can be recording and editing any audio.

If you plug in a microphone, you can edit that. Or, begin with a WAV file or an MP3.

Audacity can also utilize plugins for effects to shape vocals or instrument tracks. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Audacity doesn't work with MIDI files or MIDI instruments (such as keyboards). But, if the keyboard sends audio (e.g., a digital piano), you can record and edit that audio. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The best things about Audacity are that it is free and cross-platform. I can use it on my Mac and PC and it provides the same familiar UI on both. It's pretty obvious how the basic features work and it does what I need. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

The UI is pretty ugly. I bet I have used Audacity on and off for over 20 years and it looks almost the same as when I started. It would be nice if there was an option to apply skins or at least a dark mode. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I love the extensive and easy to use toolset that Audacity has to offer. And the price is free, so you can't NOT use it. I think it's one of the best audio programs out there, considering the price and effects library. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

I think the GUI could use a massive update. I think it not being as flashy as other audio editing programs might put people off, and make them think that it's outdated, even though it's powerful. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.
