 Maybe I should start using my similarly powered laptop instead ;)

 Yup - that's pretty much it.  I've just been playing with sonic-
 visualiser - looks like an astonishingly powerful bit of software, but
 haven't quite got comfy with its interface yet.  Its note-detector is
 about as effective as every other note detector I played with on
 that other OS.

 But yes - basically it'd be a very mini-loop - presumably you'd have
 that customisable, but default in the range of somewhere under 0.1s
