Well…You already knows quite well how vegas functions…
and that bring to front feature thats available in
photoshop does not function that way in vegas.
You can however try to get full acquainted with the
parenting and child features.

Its a bit strange to figure that one out….Dont have that
problem with vegas 8.1 on my 64 bit machine….tried to even
create the issue you are having on my system to arrive at a
solution, but no luck….
Seems its duplicating the audio and applying itself in more
than one instance.

There maybe the fact that if an audio fx is not
64 bit compatible…there could get some problem.

That is really strange Terry…it would seem as though there is
a bug (conflict related)in the Vegas 8.1 architecture….Before
i go any further, did this just started happening or is this the
first time you start experiencing this oddity or start applying
audio effects in the vegas 8.1 version?

Where did you get this particular mp3 file?
Or does this happens with all mp3’s.

Have you tried already just using the cursor to drag/enlarge
the videofx interface window to see if everything comes
into view?

I know not of such an issue….Vegas 8 has a new feature
the “audio mixing console“. Try using that feature and
apply your audio fx and mixes there….this feature is a
unique and convenient location to handle all your audio
tasks.
BTW, What specific audio fx are you applying to this audio?

Also for added ease of use & variety…there is a plugin
thats available for Vegas named “Pixelan CreativEase”
that does this really well along with tons of other
unique stuff.

Speaking of letterboxes…Zenote has a letterbox plugin
that can come in very handy (For me i dont have to go
thru that extra task of creating tracks above the video
with black solids and event pan/crop)…
Although at present the Zenote product line is dead.
I can only speak of the stability of this letterbox plugin.
