Reminds me of the 6816-based microprocessor lab course assignment about 
20 years ago.

Push a button and it will record audio until you release the button or 
memory is full (whatever happens first). Then two sliders will allow you 
to set playback start and playback end. If end is less than start, then 
the sample will be played backwards.

Of course it was just 8 bit and 32kHz, but it was pure fun.
