Hi... A while back, Amiga Computing (a UK magazine) gave a program away on their coverdisk which read in a sample, and allowed you not only to cut and paste etc samples, but to add effects like Waah, distortion, metallize the sound, compress, expand, and a whole host of other features. This was great...except the program, written in (albeit compiled) BASIC was as robust as AmigaBASIC itself. In other words, it was slow, it gurued and crashed more often than not. Fortunately, the source code was provided...Unfortunately, when presented with 2000 lines of the form aa=1:zz=1000.0:for i=1 to 10:a(aa,i)=zz/i/1000.0*128:next i gosub f1:gosub f2 etc, I decided that life was rather too short to decode this modern- day hieroglyph. So...does anyone out there know of software, commercial or otherwise that does this sort of job reliably?
