I agree with Lloyd Rassmussen's assessment. However, it is really hard to answer your question accurately without knowing more about why you are choosing Sound Forge. I use Sound Forge because I bought it a long time ago and got pretty used to some of the areas that are not that easy to use. I like its noise reduction tool and feel I can get the results I want more easily than I have managed with other programs. If you are just starting out, though, I'm not sure you would not find less frustration with Gold Wave or perhaps Audacity. I understand there is pretty good editing with Total Recorder as well.
If you get the full version of Sound Forge rather than the studio version, you have to use the mouse pointer to choose the version of the equalizer you want to use once you have opened the dialog. Once you do that, choosing a multi-band option instead of an envelope format, it works as Lloyd describes. You can also get values for some of Sound Forge's controls by turning Speak All on, but you get a lot of extra chatter. I am sure there are likely other areas I find challenging that someone has found a way around, though. Still, since I am as used to Sound Forge as I am, I have not found it worth switching to anything else. Like many programs, it is not possible to flatly say it is accessible or it is not, it depends upon what features you use and also what your comfort level is using the mouse keys. There is a lot of keyboard control, though, and a lot you can do if you take the time to learn how it works.
