Thanks Pete! As usual your advice was on the money and
your 1st suggestion worked quite nicely. Now my only
other question would be: "Why am i not hearing any
attack clicks as Michiel mentioned?" What I'm hearing
sounds more like pedal noise. It's curious that a file
labeled "old lady releases" would contain attack
clicks.  JP
