There's SND-ls that aims to make SND usable by mere mortals, but I'm not
sure it achieved this goal yet:

I've understood (though not used) ecasound to have a lower learning
curve and be just as able as snd. Is that correct?

It's hard to say because it's hard to compare those two programs. SND is
a completely scriptable graphical audio editor. Ecasound is a DAW
with a commandline interface and bindings for many programming
languages. I'm sure both can be used for pretty similar things but their
goals are different and they both have a rather steep learning curve.

I think, a beginner will find some useful, interesting things in SND, before the learning curve starts to become very steep. In Fact SND can be used for many things like granular synthesis, basic filtering or dynamics before you learn a single command for its scripting language.

But if you really want to control what is going on in SND you will have to learn the basics of its command line interface.
