What makes an editor professional is determined by the skill of the person doing the editing. If you haven't a clue on what to listen for, remove or enhance, I don't care how many bells and whistles a particular editing program may have you're going to get poor to mediocre quality. You are going to have to scrape your ears a while to get what you have decided is good to excellant quality.
