There's SND-ls that aims to make SND usable by mere mortals, but I'm not
sure it achieved this goal yet:

ecasound to have a lower learning
curve and be just as able as snd. Is that correct?

It's hard to say because it's hard to compare those two programs. SND is
a completely scriptable graphical audio editor. Ecasound is a DAW
with a commandline interface and bindings for many programming
languages. I'm sure both can be used for pretty similar things but their
goals are different and they both have a rather steep learning curve.
