Hey there,
The Aeros uses the first 8ms and an extra last 8ms in audio files to create crossfades otherwise the loop would pop at every revolution, there really isn’t much we can do if the very first transient is slightly reduced, you could make note of it while bouncing and increase the volume of the first hit a bit.
If you are on 5.2.0 the Aeros allows importing the files and adding 360 samples to the end of them to avoid issues with unnecessary truncation at the end and/or a fade out to avoid pops
What you’re thinking of doing would sort of work but won’t work so well when you need to switch parts or stop since the start/stop/transition point is not in the right spot
Thank you for reporting!
