Cutting/pasting sounds without smoothing ends

Post by dtgriscom »

Amadeus seems to smooth the ends of any pasted audio, probably in an attempt to avoid pops. I don't want this; I want to be able to exactly specify the audio. For instance, I'd like to cut ten cycles of a sine and paste it into an area of silence, in order to test latency and response of some digital audio equipment. But, I can't do this; when I paste the sines, a smoothing function is added to the ends. The same happens at the beginning and end of a generated file; I can't make a sound that, when played and looped, makes a continuous sine.

Is there any way to disable this? If not, may I suggest an advanced setting that does so?
