Sorry. Didn't mean to come off like that. Actually, I hadn't read the other responses, so my point was not to be dismissive of your experience, but to say that instead of trying to open another sequence, the answer was to cmd-. to stop the redraw. I have never not been able to get this to work... sometimes it takes a few seconds, but it's usually fairly responsive and foolproof. Just a matter of the internet communications system of emails tangling intent. My apologies. That's not the way I meant it to sound.

Maybe these more recalcitrant systems would indeed have stopped drawing the waveforms if I had just continued to pound on those two keys repeatedly for another ten or twenty seconds, but I just gave up, perhaps too soon.

As to FCP's waveforms, they are in many cases rather useless, but in my experience they are not inevitably useless. I've experienced some weird out of sync stuff with them, where sound and waveform display didn't line up, but that was a symptom of a bigger problem with the audio media itself, some conflict between the frame rate of the Easy Setup and the frame rate of the imported audio. In general, I just find them too small, and I don't know of a way to make them bigger.
