Need import/new functionality

An easier way to start a mix with new audio sources seems like a good idea. I like the idea of using drag/drop file uploads to accomplish this, but will require a backend.

What if we just made a separate page that lets you drag/drop a bunch of MP3s with the FileReader API, creates the mix, and then gives you a button to spit out a new mix.json? That could be done entirely client side.

So, you'd drag the files, mix everything the way you want, and click "Create JSON" or whatever to give you your new mix config file.

Then you'd just have to go dump the MP3s into a directory, copy the JSON, and you'd be set.

Not quite as easy as it could be with a back end (because you still have to copy the MP3 files), but it's a lot better than manually editing a huge JSON file by hand.
