Hi, on listening to the attached I found a funny glitch, like a spark. I guess a couple questions.
Any idea what could cause this kind of thing, so I can try to avoid in the future?
And any way to remove or smooth this over in the existing recording?
The spark noise is a drop-out: a tiny piece (~55ms) is missing, replaced by silence …
Can delete the silence and repair the join to remove the “spark”, but the tempo is wrong (because 55ms is missing) …
To lower the odds of drop-outs, (aka skipping), in the future, see …
