It isn't indeed, because most of the good wave editors don't even
really support ALSA: Audacity uses OSS per default and is hard to get
working with ALSA; Rezound uses OSS or Jack, Sweep's ALSA support can
be shaky and only Snd supports ALSA directly and well, but can do with
OSS, too.

Although the "dividing into tracks" can be difficult with some of
them. Of above examples only Audacity and Snd have useable multitrack
features, of course not in a way like Ardour does. For advanced usage
I'd say, still nothing beats Snd.

Ciao
