For non-realtime (including non-linear, like montage)

need only plugins (ladspa, lv2, vamp) and some editor like Audacity,
mhWaveEdit or something other.
For realtime (also called
non-destructive editing... hm, probably, they are right :) you need
set of various software, that could be used at one time and be
connected each to other).
real-time effects processing and non-destructive editing often go hand
in hand, but note that
"non-destructive" means that the original [audio] data will never be
modified. Any edit/effect/modifications are saved as new files (or
remebered as application-settings operating on the original data).
audio-editors (rezound, audacity, sweep, etc) are usually destructive:
load file, apply effect, save file -> original file is gone.
DAWs (ardour, qtractor, ecasound,..) are non-destructive:
reference file, apply effect or modifications to data
but to save the resulting audio, you need to bounce the track or export
the session.
It would be better for you to begin with special
distros, where all
necessary staff is installed and has good settings out of box. My
favorite is kxstudio, as (imho), best variant vor newbies.
Lookup for some (or more) articles and videos.
