Is there another way to play an arbitrary part of a soundfile? Aside from using SoundView? Paul Lansky >From: seibel@cgl.ucsf.edu (George Seibel)

Is there another way to >play an arbitrary part of a soundfile? Aside from using SoundView? Use the copySamples:at:count: method to copy the desired portion of the sound to another sound object. You can then play that sound object for the same behaviour once provided by playFrom:count:. Before you say "but that sounds so inefficient," let me add that it isn't; the copy involves lots of Mach magic and not much real data copying is done (unless you somehow write into the data later, of course).
