Thanks PG … that certainly makes sense. Logical.
I hardly ever use noise reduction (I master music) and it looks like this was operator error … I simply misread the manual.
This was a most challenging project, entirely done within WL8. It has all worked out well and the client called and told me ‘it sounds so beautiful that I started to cry’. WL8 makes people happy even when the operator may not know what they are doing!
Thank you again.
