"Editing wise, well, there IS no editing audio styles!"
couldn't be a more INNACURATE statement
maybe not for you or others,
but i can edit any audio drum loop via ProTools, Logic, Ableton, etc.
i can add fills to an existing audio loop (multitrack)
Audio is editable, NOT as much as midi as far as moving notes, pitch, etc, but it's editable
so there IS some editing of audio styles
