Hi,

pure evil ... now you can load all your "legacy mp3 files" into sweep and
scrub around with them. I also made a few demo recordings, hooray :)

Sweep 0.5.8 Development Release
-------------------------------

Sweep is a sound wave editor, and it is now also generally useful as a
flexible recording and playback tool. Inside lives a pesky little virtual
stylus called Scrubby who enjoys mixing around in your files.

This development release is available as a source tarball at:

    http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/sweep/sweep-0.5.8.tar.gz?download

MP3 import is now supported (via libmad). Minor bugs have been fixed in
rendering of record position and playback mixing.

There is a new page of audio demos made with Sweep. These demonstrate the
sounds of Scrubby, a tool which allows vinyl-like manipulation of digital
audio:

Sweep is designed to be intuitive and to give you full control. It includes
almost everything you would expect in a sound editor, and then some:

        * precise, vinyl like scrubbing
        * looped, reverse, and pitch-controlled playback
        * playback mixing of unlimited independent tracks
        * looped and reverse recording
        * internationalisation
        * multichannel and 32 bit floating point PCM file support
        * support for Ogg Vorbis and MP3 compressed audio files
        * LADSPA 1.1 effects support
        * multiple views, discontinuous selections
        * easy keybindings, mouse wheel zooming
        * unlimited undo/redo with fully revertible edit history
        * multithreaded background processing
        * shaded peak/mean waveform rendering, multiple colour schemes

Sweep is Free Software, available under the GNU General Public License.

More information is available at:

Thanks to Pixar Animation Studios and CSIRO Australia for supporting the
development of this project.

enjoy :)

Conrad.
