A Freshmeat search for sound and editor reveals a number of editors -
useful for me as I haven't checked out many of them for ages.  Just
tried audacity which looks good but spurts hiss from my imac (an endian
issue perhaps?) - worth trying though methinks.  DAP is good as well and
has been around for ages.  Good luck getting out a piano pedal squeak.
Unless it's all by itself editing might not be all that effective...
