Yes, this is much better - things look consistent now, and in a slightly
more complex setup I have not yet heard the strong "clicks" again that I
heard before irregularly. Great, thanks a lot!

I _am_ still seeing that the very first snare hit when starting playback is
played a little differently (softer) from the rest which is connected to the
fact that the play region starts with exactly that hit.
I guess Qtractor is doing some kind of automatic volume ramping here, since I
can get rid of this by moving the "start of play region" marker just a little
to the left - and also it goes away with the next iteration of that region
when is being looped. So, this is (I guess) rather a feature than a bug
(did we discuss this topic before? I have a strange feeling of Déjà Vu right now..).

Once again, thanks for very quick bug fixing! You deliver! :-)

Greetings,
Frank
