Hi,

I'm interested if any one is doing research in phonology/phonetics using the 
latest in digital technology.  I was in a music studio with digital editing 
software recently; stuff usually used for musicians.  You can see and hear the 
sound waves at the same time.You can  Isolate, magnify, manipulate etc..any 
section of a  sound wave( a dipthong, or a phrase for example).  It seems the 
potential as a linguistic research tool, or language teaching tool is enormous.

I would be interested if anyone has heard of such work being done or if anyone 
is doing it themselves.

Take care,
David
