- I have a friend who is interested in the sound editing capabilites of whatever
- software may be available for the NeXT.
-
- His goal is to be able to examine the waveforms for a given piece of recorded
- sound (I believe that it is music with a vocal track), identify the vocal
- sections, cut and paste (and stretch, modify, and otherwise edit) segments of
- the sound while leaving the background noise (music) alone, and then re-record
- the whole lot.
-
- To within certain limits, I do not believe that memory, software costs, and
- additional minor hardware (microphone, adaptors, etc.) are a cost factor.
- *Any* information on such sound editing software for the NeXT (including
- pointers to magazine articles) would be appreciated.
-
- Please send e-mail. I'm unable to read this newsgroup. Thanks.
