I brought this to PG tech support and they fixed the problem. The fix was to delete and let the software recreate two files in preferences.

Complete investigation revealed that, when compared in audio editor, the original track and the Utility track copy were identical.

The difference came in with Drag and Drop. Because of the corrupted preference files the dropped file was much reduced in level.

I'm not going to list the files here as there are multiple steps involved that I think are best left to Tech support to describe.

Thanks everyone for pulling an oar on this
