I'd recommend Steinberg's WaveLab, although it's not inexpensive. It's very
versatile, powerful and easy to use. There is a 'lite' version too I think
that costs less and has less features. Go here :
http://www.steinberg.net/en/ps/products/
and select Wavelab or WaveLab Essentials in the products drop down.

Here is a feature comparison chart :

Nero Burning ROM is also very good but it really doesn't have any editing /
processing feature like WaveLab does.

Best of luck!

What would be the most cost effective and user friendly software for doing
post-production work on a studio-made CD? I am a musician and an
electronics
engineer.

I have a four song studio-recorded CD with some vocal pops, slightly thin
sound, and other technical flaws on some of the cuts. I'd like to improve
it
one cut at a time using filtering, EQ, ambience/reverb enhancement, etc.
After optimizing all four cuts, I want to burn them onto a CD-R for use by
Disc Makers as a duplication master.

Opinions would be greatly appreciated.
