How 'bout those little number like they use

...Where you have a row of numbers that it looks like they pulled
out of a slot machine and you can either click on them and enter a
new number, use the up and down arrows on the side or click and move
your mouse in one direction or the other to change the numbers.
I like the idea of mapping the audio frequency to a corresponding
color frequency as well... Maybe you could have the numbers or a
border around the numbers change color?
He, yeah, the good old gtk spin button... The problem is there is no
"click and move" behaviour AFAIK. That'd be great, this requires
having a little button between the up and down arrow, which you press
to obtain the same effect as a knob.
that sounds almost like blenders "slide buttons" .
they basically like that (if it doesn't get mangled):

you can:
a: click on the edges to change the value step by step (ctrl+click for
larger steps)
b: click and move your mouse to change the value (limitable with <ctrl> )
c: <shift> click to enter a value manually
say anything you want about blenders interface but these buttons rock :D
