AUDACITY?!?!?!?!?!?!
*smacks head again*
I'm honestly quite surprised that you were able to edit so efficiently in Audacity, which shows a lot on your part

. That program is the worst of the worst. It's very limited as far as effects processing and editing and what not, so doing what I think might need to be done to the audio in that piece of software just wouldn't work. There's a lot of steps to go through in order to clean up a "crappy" recording. There's also a few things I use like the Izotope product line and their audio restoration tools that are VST/RTAS based plug-ins that only work in software that supports it. I use ProTools, but you should look into getting a decent piece of software like Cakewalk or Adobe Audition to do some serious cleaning up of audio. If you're one to download software on a less than legal basis, I could point you in a few good directions. If not, there's always Reaper which is free/very cheap. That would be a good piece of software to gather.
But yeah, I can sit you down sometime and show you how to do it, it's just that everything is different and you will need to use your ears and figure out what's wrong with the problem and know how to go about fixing it. And there's a few plug-ins you'd need to buy/steal in order to do some major surgery on stuff.

PS. I've got that same recorder and that thing is pretty awesome. I've never used it to record a live show, but I can't imagine that the quality would be TOO bad, and if it was it's more the fault of the room than the recorder.
