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?

Thanks!
