Yes this is an old problem. I got caught with this problem once when transferring a final wave file to a CD Folder and wondered where the normal gap at the start of each song had gone. Of course I had made a number of CDs before I found the answer.

I also wonder why, when Consoldating, You need to enter a range with the arrows only to find out that you may not be consolidating the whole track. For my purposes I would remove the Range Window as unnecessary.
