[MPA] Analog to digital question (Sound Studio)

[John Neumann]

I don't know if this is a quirk of my system (I think everything else 
is working fine) or the fact that I have a slow powerbook (550 
TiBook), but in the newer versions of the program, sometimes when I 
go to insert a marker, my hand accidentally drags the cursor a tiny 
bit, and I create a region instead. What then happens, is when I hit 
the space bar to play (to hear if my marker is placed correctly), I 
get the spinning beach ball of death. I think the program gets into 
an infinite loop or something. It only happens if the selected region 
is small.

This doesn't happen in 2.0.7 or below, so I've stayed with 2.0.7, 
which does almost everything I want, beautifully. Do the newer 
versions allow OS X length files names to be created from the split 
by marker command? I could really use song titles longer than 32 
characters.
