It would have to take two more arguments, e.g:

This is already achievable by creating a new Float32Array “view” onto the underlying ArrayBuffer.  I.e. to set ‘buffer' samples (50, 150] with only the first 100 samples from ‘array’:

	buffer.set(array.subarray(0, 100), 50);

The TypedArray.subarray method involves no copying of the underlying data.
