Beyond that, you could use a "hex editor" to manually edit the file, but that is definitely not "simple".

Okay so there is absolutely no way I can fix this? You could try the "Clip Fix" effect. That effect tries to reconstruct the peaks that have been clipped off the waveform. Clip Fix can work reasonably well if there is only a small amount of clipping, but I'd guess that your badly clipped ...
