Nick-

Thanks for providing additional user experience on this issue.

Would you mind responding with the bit-depth/sample-rate 
settings on the recording device used when achieving these 
results? Thanx.

Off-Topic: Amused at the Meatloaf reference, as I was part of the 
original recordings for 'Bat out of Hell'  produced by Todd R. The 
'steel guitar' riffs on 'Two Out of Three..." were made using my 
custom Probe controller and Oberheim  analog modules.

Onward-
