[sdiy] Sampler mode...

Sorry it was very late when I wrote that and had been working on a spline
based editor for 12 hours straight :)

That wouldn't help because then the click would just happen 1 sample 
later.  What is needed is for a smooth transition of sample level at all 
times.  For start point a simple fade in is fine, but for looping it's 
definitely better to do it at zero-crossings.
