I also use Media Editor to crop the "junk" off the ends of the file. And I would also really like it if ME would remember the original file type when editing, I occasionally forget to change it back to .ape, and have to convert it later.
I would also love it if ME could allow you to adjust the equalizer settings while listening to a song, and then save the track with those adjusted equalizer settings once I have it sounding the way I want. I have quite a few live 'bootleg' recordings, and they don't always sound the greatest. I can usually equalize the harshness away to an extent, but it's a real nightmare to
1) pick a selection to preview
2) adjust the equalizer
3) preview
4) repeat steps 2 & 3 about 15 times until I like the result
5) write down the equalizer settings
6) select the entire track
7) re-adjust the equalizer to match the way I liked it in step 4
save
Having the equalizer be available while listening to the track, then remember those settings when I go to apply it would be GREAT!
Thanks
