Thanks very much, Joel. I'll take a look. But you illustrate my main problem
very well. In this context, what are transport and special effects?? Well,
I could possibly guess what special effects are, but "transport"???
I simply don't know enough about recording to be able to use and/or understand
anything beyond start, stop, fast forward, rewind, record and save. And it
would be nice to be able to see whether or not anything is being recorded!
