Sound Pad is a full featured sound wave editor for all versions of Windows (XP, 2000, 95, NT and 3.1). It is a bit out of date compared to open source programs like Audacity, but it still has some useful features.

Sound Pad has been an on going project since ~1992. It began its life as a piece of test code for other audio projects. The wave manipulation capabilities of SOUNDPAD are useful to a range of other Menasoft projects.

Its a bit out of date and hasn’t been updated lately. So programs like Audacity (sourceforge) might be a better option, but it still has some useful features. For instance I lately needed to do some re-sampling of WAV files from 44100 to 32000Hz. I could not find any tool as simple and easy as SoundPad for that task.
