Description
Tested with v2.1.2 and the latest version (at the time of writing) of the recording & playback branch: 0b06914
We can use positive array indexes to access and modify the data inside an AudioFrame, but not a negative index to access.
>>> af = audio.AudioFrame()
>>> af[len(af) - 1] = 123
>>> af[-1]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: index out of bounds
>>> af[1:]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: can't convert slice to int
>>> af[1:2]
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
TypeError: can't convert slice to int

Technically we could use a memoryview
for this, but it's not a well know feature, so even if we documented well and add it to the examples it might not be used as much.
We also have issue #187 released to memoryview.
If we wanted to enabled this for AudioFrame we should probably enable it for V1 as well. Is the performance/size penalty for this significant?
