Hows about being able to map short samples to the buttons?... audio effects would would be a nice touch.

Which buttons would you use for this?  Most targets don't have many spare buttons.  Some (like the C200) don't even have enough buttons.

This would need to be a plugin.
And LUA has access to the playback (don't think it does at this point in time) this would be a perfect use for it.

Lua has access to almost all 'basic' functions, that is all functions that don't return or require as arguments: structs, enums and non-char pointers.

As most playback-related functions fall under this category, I think it should be doable in Lua (although you won't be able to mix the samples; that requires access to the raw PCM buffer).

As many buttons as possible... i figure all buttons -1 to go to the menu (which would give my Sansa 6) maybe the scroll wheel could scrub a sample back and forth too.

(although you won't be able to mix the samples; that requires access to the raw PCM buffer).

I think that would be fine...

other thought: buttons should be able to be set to A. 'trigger' which starts playing upon press, and stops when clip is over -  or when it or another clip is triggered --- or B. 'hold' where the clip plays for as long as the button is depressed (cheer up button )

kinda... only it would allow you to assign the sound files from anywhere... and wouldn't be limited to .raw (which is mentioned in "room for improvement")

and the trigger/hold button option... and scroll wheel scrub would be cool.

... but other than that, I'll give this one a try for now!! Thanks It's even made to work solely on my player!! SCORE!
