Adobe Creative Suite
"Taken as a whole, Creative Suite 4 can't be beat for producing print or online content. Though Soundbooth makes it fast and easy to perform selected tasks for which it's designed, Adobe Audition is more tool- than task-oriented, and it supports VST instruments and effects, MIDI tracks, batch processing, CD burning, and more. Soundbooth doesn't come with a large library of audio files like Audition does, but it does allow you to download sound effects and audio tracks called Scores from the Web without opening your Internet browser. Like all of the applications in CS4, Soundbooth is a well-designed, well-executed program, but if you have serious audio-editing needs, you may outgrow it rather quickly."

Sound wave properties and characteristics
"Sound waves are characterized by the generic properties of waves , which are frequency , wavelength , period , amplitude , intensity , speed , and direction (sometimes speed and direction are combined as a velocity vector , or wavelength and direction are combined as a wave vector ).
Transverse waves , also known as shear waves, have an additional property of polarization .
Sound characteristics can depend on the type of sound waves (longitudinal versus transverse) as well as on the physical properties of the transmission medium
Whenever the pitch of the sound wave is affected by some kind of change, the distance between the sound wave maxima also changes, resulting in a change of frequency . When the loudness of a sound wave changes, so does the amount of compression in air of the wave that is traveling through it, which in turn can be defined as amplitude . " (wikipedia.org)
