- This is a beta release of an NeXTstep phase vocoder application that
- David Jaffe and I hacked together in April. This implementation uses
- threads - you can actually run multiple phase vocoder processes from
- this application at once. As phase vocoders are cpu cycle ravagers,
- it is not wise to have many of these threads running at once.

- I admit it; I made the icon. It is supposed to be a picture of two
- hands clutching the ends of an signal; they are poised to squash or
- stretch it. Other people have said that the icon has two birds in it;
- someone mentioned flowers, a steamroller, the cover of a Kurt Vonnegut
- novel, the pope'e spleen, a careening mustang plowing into a fushcia
- pomo strip mall in Anaheim, California. So I am holding a contest to
- see what you, they end-user thinks of this icon. Does it look like
- Barbara Mandrell's mouth before she shouts a soaring melody?
