Frithsamur, I suspect that the problem that you are hearing is distortion (clipping) due to the combined audio level being too high. When you mix multiple tracks together it is necessary to reduce the playback level of each individual track so that the combined mix (the sum of the tracks) does not e...

I think the underlining definitely makes them look more like links than without underlining, but on my monitor the...

It should not make any difference which digital sound standard you use. It should not, but on Windows 7 it appears that quite often it does.
