I don't find it at all jarring, which is the most important thing.

Maybe to you, but you released it to the public. The public often cares about different things.

I've done the very best I can there, I am very satisfied with that audio cut and i'm a difficult man to please.

Ultimately I'm making these Semi-Specialised Editions for myself, I'm very happy that others are enjoying them as well but my aim was never to try to please all the public, as that would be impossible.

Everybody has a different opinion on things to keep/change/remove from the Special Editions, so if I was trying to make everybody happy with these releases they'd never see the light of day.

I'm happy with them, as they're almost all changes I was thinking of trying to implement myself.

As I said, I don't find them too jarring, especially the first one. But I do think cross-fading could help. I'm not sure what the function in TMPG does, but cross-fading overlaps audio from the two adjacent cuts and adjusts their levels simultaneously to smoothen things out without leaving a moment of silence behind (as depicted here: http://wiki.audacityteam.org/w/images/8/85/Equal_power_cross-fade.png ). If nothing else, maybe you'll find it useful in your future work in situations where you can't find a good cutting point.

Thanks for that explanation. I'll definately look into it.
