You can usually add sound effects, split, resize, fade, crossfade, pitch shaft, mix, copy and paste sound segments, etc.

sounds and effects, having instruments with realistic sound (guitar, drums, e-piano, power chords, e-bass), a MIDI editor, atmospheric and
background noises (if you need such a thing), etc, besides the usual ability to record, create, remix, add effects, and edit digital sound.
