The only conclusion I can arrive at from this, and despite lots
of effort to avoid it, is that you don't have a clue as to what
is involved in editing e.g. classic music recordings.
unfortunately, your conclusion would be wrong.
Unfortunately, I don't think so. Or you have other reasons
for not providing the sort of functionality that is needed.
Without a single exception, everyone involved in this sort of
work (classic or more generally, 'acoustic' music recording
and editing) that I've shown Ardour to has said more or less
the same thing: 1. it can't do it, or at best in a very clumsy
way, and 2. it's a marvellous program otherwise, and it would
probably take very little to solve its obvious problems.
Not my words, but I do agree with them.
