Happens also with crossfades. I´m very aware of zero crossings when doing X fades.
Thing is, the fades sound great at first. Then some minutes later when listening back after some time, the clicks and pops appear.
Not always, but very often.

This time while editing a 30 + audio track project.
Just a thought select a new mix (ie removing all plugins and see if it still happens) just to rule out excessive processing

Probably not but best to rule out

Cheers

PT will not allow a crossfade to go beyond the bounds of the soundbite, alerts you and will adjust the range accordingly. DP will allow you to create a crossfade even if there is no audio present, and it does not alert you, so clicks at soundbite extremes may be exposed.

I'm pretty sure this isn't the issue here, but it is worthy of note when creating crossfades.

Cheers!!

Hey Steven, Thanks for the heads up. Never would have suspected that DP wouldnt flag that! That needs addressed for sure.
Actually it does with crossfades. If there is sufficient audio in each soundbite beyond the crossfade point the crossfade is red. If not the crossfade is blue.

CORRECTION: If the crossfade is good, ie there is sufficient audio either side of the edit, then the fade colour is the same as that of the track (NOT RED)

If there is not sufficient audio then the fade is Blue

It's that old? I guess I'm just a medium-geezer then. Or perhaps a winter chicken or middle-fogey? :lol:

It's old. It's one of those things that if you remember it, you weren't there.

It's just what kids say to their siblings. You know, the whole sibling rivalry thing. No TV reference intended. Kinda like when I tell Monkey Man to be more like his cousin, Guido. (The Italian mother thing.)
