Abstract:
1. A computer-implemented method for editing signal data, the method comprising steps of: displaying original signal data as a three-dimensional representation, wherein each dimension of the representation corresponds to an attribute of the original signal data; receiving user input that indicates a selected portion of the representation; modifying the original signal data by applying an effect to one or more parts of the original signal data that correspond to the selected portion, thereby producing modified signal data; and storing the modified signal data on a computer-readable medium; wherein three different attributes of the original signal data are spatially represented within the three-dimensional representation along three different spatial axes, each axis of the axes following a separate vector that points from a common reference point shared by the three different spatial axes, and each axis-following vector pointing in a different direction for each other axis-following vector; wherein said steps are performed by one or more computing devices.
