Having the .wav editor bundled in with it seems to make that previously simple task more complicated. Cheers rayc "What's so funny about peace, love & understanding?" - N.Lowe

Quote: he manual suggests File - Open Special - Launch Audio Chord Wizard is at the bottom of the submenu. Will look into that. Meanwhile, the "built-in" Audio chord wizard is more accurate and easier to use. Is there something that you could do in the older stand-alone ACW that you cannot do with the audio edit window?
