Andrew,
you should be able to use readanysf~ to do what you want.
just [open( the file and then [time_seek( or [pcm_seek( to any
position in the file and then [play(
you could also use soundfiler on a large wav file using -skip and and
-nframes to load the file. after that you can do normal table
lookup and manipulation (play forwards, backwards, slower, faster,
etc)
best -august.
