Does anybody know of a good sound sampler/editor for PCs; with special
emphasis on the sound editor. The editor MUST be graphic-based, easy to use,
have powerful editing & playback capabilities. The sampler software must
store its samples in a documented file format, since I will need to convert
sampled/edited files into another sound format ( CVSD ).

Alternatly, does anyone have any information about a file format ( or sound
encoding technique ) called CVSD ?

CVSD is an antiquated sound format that stores sampled sounds as a bitstream
, where each bit represents an increment/decrement on the preceding value.
It also does some strange things in order to handle rapidly changing
signals.

ANY information will be appreciated !

Thanks in advance.
