Thanks Robert, as usual, I was not content with that edit (and have removed it)... and on this next one I decided to leave the 59 hertz peak be! Not wanting to risk.. Well and I sampled at silence at end and did not notice any notch-benefit /It may be alien? But inconsistent? Regardless have taken a...

Here are the (Tascam DR5 recorded) samples: WAVE 16 bit 44 kHz mono (705 kbps): 160825_0087_WAV.wav MP3 ?? bit 44 kHz mono (128 kbps): 160825_0088_MP3.mp3 The WAVE was trimmed with Audacity (2.1.2) (set to 16 bit, not 32 bit float).

I am using windows 7 on an HP 64 bit computer/offline - rolled back to factory condition with no microsoft updates..

Thanks, for the other problems, I'll also try deleting pluginsettings.cfg.

Are you using Cut Preview (C shortcut)? No, not using that Have you tried turning off "Update display while playing" in Tracks Preferences? Yes, but prefer this on. Previous version did not have this problem, allowing both features simultaneously. But not using "Update display while playing", thoug...

The biggest problem 2.1.2 has that 2.1.1 does not is in "fit selection" (edit tool bar). Where it often proceeds to the next part of the song at end of the preview. It does stop but the "fit selection" is then off-screen ... where rewinding, scrolling back, etc., or replay is required to bring selec...
