Some of the best audio is sourced from vinyl, rather than modern CDs. Modern production values have dropped in recent years, partly as they have to accommodate the 'iPod crowd' who listen to their music through tiny headphones, which are capable of reproducing a limited dynamic range. If you like to listen to your music through large powerful speakers, you might want to grab your old LPs and import the audio to your computer. However, once it's on your machine, you need a tool to touch-up and enhance the recorded sound.

Wavosaur 1.0.3 is a free audio editor that will enable you to import your audio and make tweaks, remove issues such as crackle and then export as your finished track. You can even record your audio using Wavosaur, if required.
