Qtractor is a powerful, very nice MII-Sequencer with good 
Audio-capabilities but it is NOT the obvious choice, if you want to 
replace Audacity.

I also recommend MHWaveedit. For day-to-day audiocutting and even as an 
advanced wave-fileplayer. (And I have not seen a crash with it in the 
last 2 or-so years).
SND is very cool for experiments with sounds derived from recordings but 
its learning-curve is steep if you want to use it for simple stuff.
Si I like SND for granular-synthesis, extreme time-strecheffects, 
realtime-effects for small samples and so on but MHW is better for 
simple editing.
