Thank you, Gale, but, again, what about handling plug-ins so they work with the new release? Still a bit confused. Sorry! Daveed P.S. Can you pass along my question about drop-in recording? Why does Audacity not have a provision for this? To my stind, it's the easiest and fastest way to correct mistakes, for example. Thanks again.
