Calling all Sherlock's
I am confounded by a strange glitch in a song
It happens twice in the song
It's not a click or normal artifact

I trouble shot it and turned down all tracks and I still hear it.

It's like a sine wave bloop, but not associated with a track. i solo them all.

The only clue Is that when it occurs I see a spike in the ( in/out) meters.

I first noticed it editing automated levels on a synth track and pitch correcting a vocal.

Any ideas welcome

We can help if you record what you hear and maybe share some screenshots of the signal chain, or better yet a Reason project.

Sudden spikes often occur if you enable devices or disable the bypassing.

^^This was my first thought too.

It can also happen when you chop audio up and there isn't a zero crossing. Using the smallest fade (0.1) in and out for each clip cures it.

Or alternately, simply a phasing effect causing all waves to be at max positive values at a certain point. I agree only a Reason project can help the diagnosis.

maybe keep an eye on your aux sends and returns as well, there could also be an accidental anomoly happening there

Pardon my ignorance but I don't know how to post a song file here. Can someone tell me how to do that?
