well, the good news is that i had what i was working on saved before the power went out.

the bad news is that i lost all the undo information and am really stuck with the last save. this is one of the reasons i moved from cool edit to cubase, but the wave editor interface is just so sexy for collage work...

i think i'm ok, but i'm going to have to do some really microscopic listening for the next few hours to be sure.
