Thanks Elija - I took your advice and tried downloading it.
However, sudo apt-get install gnome-sound-recorder didn't produce anything, and synaptic package manager did not have it. When I downloaded it from softpedia, I was unable to install it with Gdebi package manager (after extracting the files), as the message back was that it wasn't a Debian file.
Instead, I went for the mhWaveEdit software suggested by rokytnji (sudo apt-get install mhWaveEdit).
Many thanks though for your suggestion - it was worth a go...
Kind regards
Mike
