Is there a way in Cool Edit 2000 to define the time scale so that when one
compares two sonograms of unequal length the time scale is the same for
both? I can't find how to do this. My way round is to trim the longer
sonogram to exactly the same length as the shorter or to cut both sonograms
and paste them onto a single new window, side by side.
