''Audio editing'' was a new technology that developed in the middle part of the 20th Century with the advent of Magnetic Tape Recording . Prior to magnetic tape, editing (and the repairing of breaks) was performed on wire recorders with solder and extra wire to reinforce the new joint. After World War II , reel-to-reel tape machines became prevalent and edits were made with straight razors and special tape to connect pieces of magnetic tape that had been cut. Audio editors would listen to recorded tapes at low volumes, and then located specific sounds using a process called Scrubbing , which is the slow rocking back and forth of the Tape Reel s across the playback heads of the Tape Deck . With the development of , Adobe Audition , Sony Sound Forge , Digidesign Pro Tools LE and Goldwave . In recent years, with the growing popularity of GNU/Linux , a number of Open Source software projects have sprung up in order to develop an open source audio editing program. This movement has been bolstered recently by the development of ALSA , and the Linux low latency kernel patch, which allow the GNU/Linux Operating System to achieve audio processing performance equal to that of commercial operating systems. The multi-platform package Audacity is currently the most fully-featured free software audio editor. SEE ALSO
