I'm a big fan of Sony Soundforge.

To minimise objections, you'd think they'd choose non-Russian MS telemetry for data collecting. It is being forked, and Debian 10 and 11 will only package from the older source code for the time being.

If alternatives are available in the standard apt-get software library, it would be great though.
Don't have a great experience with PPA (exept Wine dev ;) )

An excerpt:

--- Quote --- Muse Group seems to have its heart in the right place. Martin Keary, a former Canonical designer responsible for MuseScore, an open-source music notation software also owned by Muse Group, will oversee Audacity at Muse Group. Despite the design experience, Keary is probably best known for his YouTube channel Tantacrul. He made a very in-depth video on Audacity back when the announcement was first made. "Just like we're doing at MuseScore," says Keary in the video, "we're planning on significantly improving the feature set and ease-of-use of Audacity, providing dedicated designers and developers to give it the attention it deserves, while keeping it free and open source." While the roadmap for Audacity looks to bring some exciting features, what's perhaps more important is that Keary is "interviewing users and creating online spaces to interact with those users in an effort to determine priorities and approaches to the program's development going forward."

He also says that Audacity will publish design mockups for users to comment on before those changes are shipped. In other words, Muse Group is listening to the community. Telemetry is a touchy subject. Muse Group apologised, backed off the change, and said it will self-host a Sentry-based system for tracking crashes and checking for software updates, and drop the telemetry for now.
