Hmmm, I don’t think I’ve ever experienced this? Anyhting in the helpfiles? Does it add blank in between the songs? Or just at the start? - Soul :s: ---

I was taking an mp3 and saving it as an mp3. It would always add a slight gap at the end or begining (cannot remember off hand) Very annoying! ---

I’m trying to make a seamless loop. i cut it down and get it perfect so it loops seamlessly. I save it as an mp3 and when i re open it ther is a little bit of silence added to the start and the end of the loop. I can’t find a setting for this anywhere. Does that explain it a little better. ---

if it’s in flash that the gap happens, it’s a known bug of sorts. Render the loop region as a .wav, and then import it into flash, it will work perfectly then. Also, you can do the same editting in Acid Pro. ---
