Hi I have an assignment to hand in shortly for which I am after some
guidance. The task is to read a WAV file, request a fade in /out time
for the track from the user and the do the fade by modifying the binary
file then writing it as a new file I have attached my code so far but
do not know how to do the fade and how to write it as a new file.
Please help!
