Steinberg WaveLab Pro 10 £430

WaveLab (Windows 10 and macOS 10.13 and 10.14) is Steinberg’s long-established audio editor and comes in both Pro and Elements (lite) versions. Over the years the original concept has been supersized into a feature-packed multifaceted application focused on recording, editing and finessing of audio, and this differentiates it from the music production focus of most DAWs. This makes it great for a broad range of users and potential uses including broadcast, voiceover, game audio preparation, sample production and even forensic audio analysis, alongside more music-specific tasks
