In monophonic sounds (frequencies) just pitch changing would be ok, but not in the case of music So you realise that this is not going to work for polyphonic music?

I was avoiding the 2 million sample limit. My answers seem to be slightly more than from Contrast, and differences seem larger with time, but still tenths of dB or less out to 30 minutes. INTEGRATE loses a bit of accuracy as (apparently) it is calculated with single precision. An alternative approa...
