Re: Why are Detach At Silences spots removed from audio when exporting to .WAV ?

Re: Stretching

Is the some "find the loudest track" tool? "Loudest" and "highest peak" are not necessarily the same thing. Example: a 0.8 amplitude 100 Hz square wave sounds much louder than a 0.8 amplitude 100 Hz (as you can demonstrate yourself with the "Tone" generator: ...
