Thank God , in the latest update (v8.04), the sound looping problem is gone!
I 've been testing it for the last 2-3 days, after its immediate release, and I am happy to report that my timeline runs smoothly without sound problems!
Bravo, well done, to the developers and the kind administrators of the forum (Borate, National Solo, etc) for their fine job!
Problems still to be addressed:
a) The small popup window that comes up when repositioning the red line. As written before, the window is not annoying itself, the brackets are! Because if accidentally pressed, they set the beginning/end of project discarding the rest without warning.
b)The EQ settings must be saved with the project. I discovered another bug here, if you split a clip, the remaining pieces are set to ...flat again. In a few words, EQ settings are neither saved nor retained when working in the timeline. Of course I do it the "Borate" way, using the copy&replace effect button, but I have to do it ALL the time!
c) I would like to report another issue, but I am not sure if it is due to the software, or to my PC:
When I sync and join two audio clips, I get a "click" sound when it plays through the junction... In order to reduce it, I have to zoom to the maximum and then try to achieve perfect matching of the waves. I can still hear it though, but much less... I had this to all versions, and I used to solve it by overlapping the clips in different tracks and use fade in/out in both. The "click" exists even to no-sound wave forms (audio with low or zero volume).
So far so good,
Regards,
Takis
