Thanks for your reply.
It doesn't happen with every session, and sometimes it doesn't happen with
every plug-in but with my session it is a problem.
I can show a way of demonstrating if you like? If you create a session and
add this wav file to the beginning:
www.aalighting.co.uk/dinner_gong.wav
Now apply the effect 'Higher Quality Pitch Scaler' to the track, which I
think is a default plug-in, and enable it
(for some reason it doesn't happen with GVerb this time).
If you play without its being frozen it is undistorted, but freeze it and
you can see clipping has occurred in the track,
and you can hear clipping in the playback. At least it does for me in the
cvs from a few days ago in Ardour and Ardour2.
Thanks,
Stephen
