Well really we need to know specifically what you want in a image editor and audio editor.

I recall using The Gimp on my N810 and was fine with it. It was a tad sluggish at times but overall excellent. Audacity would probably be much heavier and slower.

The problem you run into isn't the framework involved at this point.. it's the CPU in the N8x0 sucks... heavy duty apps run atrociously slow. So if you layout a specific list of requirements for what you want the app to do it could be easier to find a lighter-weight alternative to port.
