Sharpeners are best applied during post-processing. Oversharpening artifacts caused by the initial sharpener won't be undone by softening or blurring of a later component. Adjust your component...

If the inserted frames appear at specific interval, remove them without touch audio. Then just squeeze the audio file. I can give you details how to squeeze the WAV file without audible quality loss.

If the audio is synched in the version with the inserted frames, and you remove them without removing the associated audio chunks, the audio will gradually drift out of sync. If you do remove those...

How Amarec handles this sequence, I wouldn't know. I never had to use it but what from what I've seen of the interface it doesn't seem to offer the flexibility of Virtualdub.

In any case; if the...

Why no tbc? It seems like an inefficient use of time and effort to discuss all these issues, none of which come as a surprise with no tbc.

I can't say anything about this, as it has always...

48-bit = BS
2400x2400 = BS

It's become marketing. It was the megapixel myth before there were megapixels.

48 bits is just 16-bit. You use to say "8-bit!" then 16-bit came out. So you took "8...

No, you've always been able to optically scan at better than 300-600dpi. You're thinking of cheap consumer scanners (mostly flatbeds), not professional scanners.
