Now that IS a bug. I'll look into it.

Right click context menus do not have that limitation, so the right click menu could correctly be greyed out when there is no region to lock. Your interpretation of "correctly". Yes, my interpretation of "correctly", but as far as the Timeline menu is concerned, I am the develop...

Since you only need frequencies up to 100 Hz, could you use WAV format with a much lower sample rate? With good resampling you could go down to less than 300 Hz sample rate and still produce a ...
