Until the file is "rendered" all of the changes made to the original are no=
n-destructive. A set of instructions is created listing all of the editing =
decisions made which is only carried out at the moment that the file is ren=
dered. The original is untouched.
Adobe Camera Raw behaves in a similar way for photos. All of the editing is=
logged and can be amended and re-thought at any stage, even years later, a=
s the original RAW file is never altered.

Same here, plus Audacity can make a copy when it imports the wav file anywa=
y. But I was under the impression that editors like Reaper also keep track =
of all the intermediate editing steps you've made, and allow you to, say, m=
odify the eq you did before you added fade in and fade out. Am I wrong abou=
t that?
