If a noise floor is too quiet what does one do? Note that it is a "warning" and not an "error". ACX do not publish a minimum noise floor level, but they do specify that they expect natural "room tone" and not dead silence. The warning indicates that the plug-in found a...

"We are aware of the issue and we are working on fixing it in a future update of WhatsApp"

That's very useful to know.

Sync Lock is on. I put a label both above and below the section of tracks. But it only copies and moves one of the two tracks in the section I have selected.
