I've used CoolEdit and [[CoolEdit Pro]] for many years, and I've tried using other editors like [[Audacity]]. They all have annoying shortcomings. I'd like to take one of the existing [[FOSS|open source]] editors, such as Audacity, and fix it up so it does everything CoolEdit Pro does, plus all the things it should do but doesn't.

The following is just a preliminary list of features, to which I'll be adding as I think of them; eventually I'll type up a full specification.
 
==Features==
* Envelope control of delay, with no arbitrary maximum (CEP 2.0 supposedly had no maximum, but due to a bug it was limited to about half a second; I pointed this out to tech support, and they "fixed" it in 2.1 by showing the correct maximum...)
* Envelope control of speed/pitch control (CEP allows envelope control of pitch, but in a separate dialog not matched against wave display; CEP also allows linear-change control of speed/pitch, but no envelope)
* conversion between envelope-style data and wave-style data
* '''Pitch correction''':
** vocal-style auto-pitch correction, harmonizing, etc.
** detection of persistent variations, e.g. warped/off-center vinyl record; automatic creation of correction curve
* Ability to use lossless formats (e.g. FLAC) as "native" storage format, for instant loading (with .pk-equivalent files)
* Data in open format; "session" data (envelopes, parameters, etc.) in XML-based format
* Import/export spreadsheet data
* '''Performance module''':
** Synthesizer-style triggering of envelopes from external or internal sources
** Wave-generation based on equations (sine waves etc.) or samples
* '''Better documentation''':
** Explanation of how all the different parameters in click/pop removal work with each other
** Wiki-based online documentation, with fallback to mirror of latest wiki contents (if internet not available)
