Saving File Adds Distortion

jonbprime

I open a wav file, play it, it sounds fine. I do "save as" (no editing has been done), select "Auto (preserves original format)" and save the file. The new file now has a hissing noise in the background and is a slightly different length. Why?

Curious as to whether you have experienced this issue when selecting the "save as" function manually?

I use version 5.10, which does not include "Auto" as a save function. I generally work with .wav files, and this is the default 'save as' function for me, which I choose and then am brought to the Wave Encoder Options dialog box.

I have notice when working on a file, once I save it does have some sort of distortion and I am not sure where it is coming from, if anyone knows how to avoid that ....that would be great . thank you
