I was afraid of that. :-(

Thanks!
RM> Right. If I'm gonna do it, I want to do a good job of it.
My motto has been since being around computers: If I know of a way of
reliably doing it once, then that's the way I do it. :-)

Seems anything SCSI will... :-(

Take a *real* close listen to Bruce Cockburn on the track "Tokyo" on
CD, then if you have access to the vinyl LP or 45, note the verse
starting with "Grey suited businessman..." and see if the difference
can be heard. That sounds like what your getting at. The fact it
happends during a word some would consider offensive, is suspicious to
me... :-)

First the soundcard support, then the editing/conversion stuff. It'd
