  RE: Why in Sound Forge Pro 18 is there two version of Channel Converter?

  @Gra_Ham Hi The problem with the MKV file is the video/audio codecs combination, ie MPEG-4 and MP3 respectively, these are not a supported combination. Try running the MKV file through a video converter such as Handbrake converting to MP4 h.264,

  RE: Can SF 7 be uninstalled and reinstalled?
  You might try the 'reset/clear cache' procedure, which has resolved MP3 issues before... I am not sure about SF-7 though. Magix versions of SF has the 'Reset' tool in the 'File' menu, but Sonic Foundry and Sony versions do not. It can be done though

  RE: MP3 conversion glitches
  Please do, Rick. It'd be very useful to know if the WAVs are somehow inherently flawed and causing the glitches during the MP3 encoding process. Then I'll have to wonder at what stage the flaws occurred: during initial clean up in SF18, or later

  RE: Meters running slightly ahead of the music playback
  If you're playing MP3 (or another lossy format) try enabling the 'Always proxy compressed formats' option in the "Options> Preferences> General" menu. If that's no help, experiment with a different buffer playback setting but I am not sure

  RE: Glitches
  @scott-james This can be caused by editing compressed audio files like MP3. It's recommended to convert them to WAV first. If you enable to always proxy compressed audio files in the Sound Forge program preferences, this will be done
