I guess I must have misread the Audacity web site and the manual because
a moderator on the Audacity Forum just enlightened me to the fact that
Audacity is NOT an audio editor (as 99.9% of the users falsely believe)
but an 'Editorial Production Environment Manager'! </sarcasm>
Audacity leaves *a lot* to be desired when it comes to making loops
to wit: having to hit stop or pause so Audacity can 'pick up' the loop
start and/or stop markers that were moved during playback makes crafting
loops very painful - I'd go so far as to say useless actually.
can anyone suggest an audio editor (on Linux) that edits loops in real-time?
Snd-ls does that. Press ctrl to change start and end points.

I don't use snd much but I see it has a lot of potential (snd-ls comes
to mind) - it also give me sporadic xruns, but not as much as rezound.
Yes, plain snd has unfortunately some problems with xruns in jack,
but snd-ls should play properly...
