thanks, Nick.

I solved most of the problems by discovering there is something in the
corner where you select "power user". then the buttons you would
expect appear at the top of the screen.

"easy" version is much harder, because the tools you need to do
precise work are absent!

i'm not sure why the demo would default to easy version, because
someone considering buying the full version of Samplitude is probably
not a beginner.

As it happens, I always found the full set of toolbars daunting - you
could spend a couple of minutes just hunting for the right button. I
tend to use features so often that I know (or set) the keyboard
shortcuts, or so infrequently that I don't mind hunting through menus
for them.

BTW, a good hint for getting to grips with Samplitude is, "try
right-clicking everywhere".
