How can you turn a small sample into a never-ending pad?

Hi Dave,

> I'm wondering how this can be done?

It seems like resynthesis where you do an FFT on a "windows" worth of
samples i.e a sub-set and then an inverse FFT but let it synthesise for
more than one cycle before moving the window through the input sample.

Try Paul's Extreme sound stretch on it.

I don't know if you were around when this came up on the -bar (Justin
Bieber!).  I stretched some of my own tracks to make them into epic
ambient monstrocities!
