Sorry about my methods not complying with the standards - I do a lot of
cleaning up and applying transforms to waves before starting to assemble them
in some kind of sequencer, multitracker, etc. Maybe I'm not in the DAW world,
but I sure do enjoy making music ;-)
I'd say about 50% of all my editing involves changing the audio files, so I
usually end up having a working directory like this:
simonsloop01.wav
simonsloop02.wav
simonsloop03.wav
simonsloop04.wav
.
.
snerty01.wav
.
.
.
I think you get the Idea!
THIS is what I'd like to use CVS for. (And, then of course, for all the
versions of the sequencer/multitracker file that goes with it.).
