Where does the extra text come from?

Hello, I have a question about some text that has mysteriously appeared.

It's in the regions list and reads "Waiting for a new day to dawn 2".
The company that sent me the file has no clue where this came from.
They maintain that they have never seen that text in any songs they have been working with.

When I opened the file SF11 said: "This file contained an illegal marker or region. The region list has been adjusted."
If there is a region list made with another editor, could that cause this error? What is an "illegal marker"?

We are curious, so we will continue trying to find where the text came from. :)

Anyone got any idea?
Thanks
Chris Lindstedt

Hi @Christer-Lindstedt, Yes, it likely is a marker (metadata) from another application. You can delete it if so desired. It does not affect the audio or the audio quality.
