WHAM, short for Waveform - Hold and Modify, is an application for manipulating digitized sound. It will play many types of audio files, including AU, AIFF, IFF, VOC, and WAV. WHAM can also record sound if you have a sound card. Files of any size can be handled, and there are many configurable options for manipulating sound files.
The 16-bit client is easy to use and comes with a solid on-line help system. WHAM was originally considered donation-ware, but without an update in more than five years, freeware is the more likely label at this point.
Pros: Digitized sound manipulation, play and record many types of sound files
Cons: 16-bit client only, severely outdated feature-set and interface, no longer developed or supported
