A 128 kbps mp3, w/o oversaturation, of "Smells Like Booty" at

I was gonna say, to this purpose, I've found aps less than 
ideal.  TerminatorX, for instance, will record your mixing
macro-style, but how then to capture it as a wav file is 
less than obvious.  There *must* a way, as the homepage has
mp3 samples from users.  Fooled briefly with GDAM; feel like
both could offer a better way to select and lock into a loop.

Regards soundfile editors--just installed Audacity last night
<http://audacity.sourceforge.net/linux.html>.  Rather be able
to extend or shorten from an existing selection (as with Gmurf)
instead of redraw the whole thing--but it looks real promising 
for a v0.98.

Someone oughta do a page collecting titles of all the songs
on which inverting the right channel and mixing it with the
left is actually effective in removing the vocals.  Maybe one
already exists?  So far, the only two I've found are "Traces" 
by Classics IV and "Hungry" by Paul Revere and the Raiders.

Got Sox 12.17, which features a better answer to my earlier
(24 Nov 2000) question about rerecording a wav at 80% speed:

# sox Infile.wav Outfile.wav speed 0.8

Heh, heh.  I hope not.  Illegal music sounds better. };)
