You'll want things like the Vinyl Restoration and Click and Crackle Removal tools in Sound Forge for this, so that's a good direction to look. A good quality noise reduction plug-in is also helpful, and normalization is also nice to make sure nothing either jumps out at you or can't be heard. I've also found that auto-cropping tools are useful too when converting from analog media to digital. I've done a *lot* of this type of stuff, including cleaning up things from some pretty rough recordings.

Jim, If by "clean up" older recordings made from Vinyl there may be other, and easier, options than Audacity (though I can't speak to accessibility off the top of my head). I had a kit that included some hardware that allowed the making of those recordings easier, but the software applied to them after the fact was pretty remarkable for removing pops, etc. I have not looked at all the filters available for Audacity recently. If you'd like me to do so to see if there are now specific ones aimed at doing what you propose I'll be happy to do so or to send you the links where you can start "drilling down" into what is available. Audacity as a whole is not, in my opinion, simple. But if you have a certain set of activities that you're routinely using it for it becomes simple once you have the routine down.
