Intertrack noise on CDs or MDs can be caused by 1) DC offset on the original *digitally transferred* recording. This causes a "pop" regardless of where the edit point is placed. The best way to fix this is to use the "Remove DC offset" checkbox in the "normalize" function of Cool Edit. 2) ADC noise in a computer sound card for *analog* transfers. Cheap soundcards may have poor anti-alias filters, so the noise might be caused by alias components. ----------------------------------------------------------------- To stop getting this list send a message containing just the word "unsubscribe" to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
