Those are all significant advantages. I never thought of using that.

Are you saying that there is an advantage to
locking regions when testing alignment, so as not
to be taken to the beginning each time? Suppose I
chose a midpoint of one the tracks against which
to align. Could I lock that region and keep
nudging the second track, using only that region for playback?
