Here's my problem. I'll open a copy of a sound event in Sound Forge... normalize to -10 db, then either EQ or use Noise Reduction to get rid of the hiss that comes up with the normalization. So far, so good... sounds great in Sound Forge

((Why r u gettin hiss after normalisation? normalisation should only increase levels according to teh highest peak.. u shoudl also be analsing via RMS, not gain.. as for the hiss, this is probabaly inherant in teh actual file and inaudible until normalisation occurs... bare in mind u can also normalise in Vegas... ))

I save my changes and go back to Vegas, but ONLY THE NORMALIZATION is working in Vegas. What gives?
((Did u "open a copy in soundforge" or did u open the original? If u open a copy, odo ur SF work, then close (agreeing to save) a second take will be in place of ur original. If u dont opena copy, ur working on the original.. ))

I could understand NONE of the changes coming over, or all of them, but not some and not others.

((Depends on what u did mate.. ))

How do I fix this?

((open a copy in SF, do your thing, close SF, agre to save go back to veags and u shoud see the clip name with "take 2" amended to the file name..
thats about it really
