I dunno if this is related, but if the vorbis plugin crashes if it ever
gets an empty buffer. I chalked it up to Vorbis' variable bit rate
scheme freaking out on something that was never supposed to happen, but
when you mentioned this I figured it'd be best to surface it anyways.

What constitutes all input tracks being "finished"? I'm just wondering
if my gate would look like things were "finished" while they're shut
down. I didn't have any problems that I recall when I just recorded wav
files in this manner.
