I had considerable success with audacity (from the 
rpmfusion-free repo) a few years back. I haven't tried 
it since the advent of pulseaudio. Last I heard, about 
a year ago, it did not support pulseaudio, but 
hopefully that has changed.

Audacity is an awkward program to use, as it is 
definitely not intuitive, but it is a good program, 
once you learn how to use it. They have a web site 
with a lot of documentation.

Also (again, my information is somewhat dated), there 
is/was an audacity in the fedora repo and another in 
rpmfusion. If you want to save your files to mp3, then 
you need the rpmfusion version; otherwise, it should 
not matter.

There has also been a series of articles on sound in 
Linux Today (linuxtoday.com). Either subscribe to the 
rss feed and scroll back a few weeks, or search the 
articles.
