New tracks are picking up sound from old tracks.
Your new audio tracks are picking up remnants of other tracks. Your microphone or
input device is picking up the output from your speakers. Try using headphones. If
that doesn’ t work, your soundcard may have some touchy circuitry. Go to your mixer

Track markers can be used to help organize your session. But they can also be
used in conjunction with a multi-WAV save. What’ s that you say? Lets say you
created this 60 minute CD audio masterpiece that has 10 sections. You invite your
friend over and tell him to "listen to this one part." You spend 15 minutes trying to
fast forward to the right spot and your friend loses interest! Wouldn’ t it have been
better to just seek to track #8 ,for example? Thus, you can place a marker at the
exact spot and select the "CD Track" checkbox. When you do a multi-WAV save, it
will create multiple WAV files based on these "CD Track" markers. Then, use your
