Thanks Allen

As well as given me the confidence to push trying to see where this
approach would take me for a bit you've inspired me to start (yet
another) cut and paste manual for myself with some of your really
practical useable tips.  I really got the idea of the relationship
between sync, reverb (accidental or otherwise), and perceived
directionality.

That's something I hadn't thought of at all.  It's right the interface
between the how and the what (luckily neither are fixed in stone yet).

thanks again
