Yes, I think it's gnomewavecleaner (http://gwc.sourceforge.net/).
Seriously, though, it sounds like you want a
de-hiss/hum/noise/snap/crackle/pop (okay maybe not so serious) utility which
would take a lot of the manual labour out of it. I don't think there's any
magic solution, but maybe GWC would help. There's others as well (e.g.
http://home.snafu.de/wahlm/dl8hbs/declick.html -- kind of old and sketchy but
easy to use).
