   Ok, but I can see no great contradiction to what I said before.

Instead of "drawing" a modulation parameter, I would suggest letting
the user specify some parameters for a process that creates the
modulation.  The former is a not a process that the listener can
releate to, but the latter might be.

   The inner ear is a kind of a "mechanical" fourier analysis -
   device. 
[...]
   So you can say : each hair-cell represents a very specific
   frequency. Thats frequency analysis !  So, the ear does not care
   about curves, but only about frequencies.

Yes, all true, but it does not explain how we can hear phase
differences between the ears so well, and can locate the source of a
sound with remarkable accuracy.  And it doesn't explain how I can
instantly differentiate between a Yamaha mixer and a Mackie in a blind
test.

Our sense of hearing is much more capable than a Fourier model would
suggest.
