Actually, I've never tried audition. That is a good thought. Since I work with records ranging from home recorded 78s to albums in mint condition to 45s and cassettes, and open reels that threaten to fall apart with every touch, I like to have aa wide assortment of editors on hand. It's been my experience that different editors can work better with different media. Thanks again for the idea.
