[RWP] Wavosaur editor, Forgot to say it is a VST host

[Indigo]

Yes, I just tried its pitch bend function, and it sounds fine up 12 
half-steps, then raised it again another 12 half-steps and the piano 
sounded a little toy-like, but it'd also sound funny in Sound Forge, or 
any other editor when raised up two octaves.
This thing is not hard to use from the menus; don't know its shortcuts 
yet, but they're shown in the menus.
I used the simple pitch shift function, there's also a high-precision 
pitch shift function that I don't understand well enough to use yet.
There are a lot of functions in those menus.
Apparently it already found my USB audio card  I use for speech and 
audio from YouTubes, without my needing to configure anything in its 
audio configuration dialog.
At my NVDA number pad screen review, it's audio configuration dialog 
shows all ports on the USB card, and also shows the Asio driver for my 
eMu PCIE card.
I seem to remember from the Wavosaur webpage that it is doing 64 bit 
internal processing, so it might take a moment to process a long .wav file.
I wish it made a beep or something when it's finished, but I pressed the 
spacebar and it began playing the file with the pitch raised 12 half-steps.
I'd call this accessible enough, especially for free.
Later I'll try a recording on Wavosaur.
