why not just a matrix of editable cells that opens with a C-x-whatever,
including one cell in each column which contains a fly-out of all
available targets for the column of edits (with default set to what it
was applied to originally)?
bill -- don't know if you saw my post about memory usage -- you seem to
have indicated that it is not normal for sounds to get loaded completely
into RAM, but this DOES seem to be what is happening for me. i.e., RAM
usage goes up by an amount corresponding to sample size when i open a
sound in snd. it does make things quite unworkable for editing long live
takes.
