If you're looking for a good alternative to Audacity for doing audio recording/production I recommend Ardour. (https://ardour.org/)

Sadly you have to pay to download it from their site, but if you compile it yourself on Windows/MacOS or install it through the repositories of your Linux distro, the full version is available. Or download builds here: https://archive.org/download/ardour-6-builds (I haven't tested these so proceed with caution.)
