Sample rate errors fixed!

I think I can blame Grazie for planting the seed in my brain that today bore fruit.
Had video edit by someone (no prize for guessing what software was used) to work on today and all the talking head footage was full of hideous sample rate errors. In desperation I thought I'd give SFs Click Removal tool a go and it worked a charm. Last time I tried it no such luck but that was on complex sounds (music) where the clicks were below peak levels. In this case they were way over peak program which might explain why the click detector was able to find and remove them.
Anyway, thank you Grazie, took a while to come to fruition but sure saved the day today.
Bob.

I think the guy did the 48K to 44.1K trick, the 44.1K audio off CDs is fine, although clipped, it's the 48K audio from the camera that was the problem.
Thing is it's almost impossible to stuff this up in Vegas unless you disable resampling, how does FCP get it so wrong? Well in older versions of FCP it wouldn't resample audio, so if you wanted to bring 44.1K audio into a 48K project you first had to convert it to 48K in iTunes. Or you could set the project to 44.1K and screw up your 48K audio.
