Sound problems in Vegas

I'm trying to edit a song down, but I'm having problems with Vegas. I'll go to the start of the section I want to remove, hit split, then go to the end of the section, hit split again, and then hit my delete key. When I add the two remaining sections together, there's a little bit of a blip/staticy sound when the program reaches the split. It's not because of the song because I've noticed this before when I accidently hit split on a video clip while it was above the music and I had to delete one of the sections and drag the song out again. Anyway to fix this?

That happens between cuts sometimes. Usually Vegas inserts very small audio fades where audio has been cut (they're less than a frame in length). It inserts those to get rid of that blip at the cut. Might you be removing those fades?

you sure you are cutting it off in the right place? it could be like an orphan frame is for video, just a small blip you meant to cut but didn't that only lasts a frame or two on the timeline.

Hmmm, I'll try looking at it more closely. I don't know how I'd end up removing the fades because I just make the two cuts and then move the one clip to join up with the first. I haven't done anything else.

Sometimes butting the two clips up next to each other takes the fade away. I don't really know why; some sort of glitch or something. Just zoom in nice and close and make a tiny crossfade or something - like, less than a frame long, probably. Assuming the audio blip is what I think it is, that should get rid of it.
