I’m using a trial license and transcoding audio to AAC. I’m getting long beeps in seemingly random spots during playback. Sometimes the sound is perfect, sometimes it just beeps. Would I be right in assuming this is the audio watermark or is something wrong here?

Hi,

Yes, in the Transcoder AddOn there is an audio water mark, present on non-paid licenses. It is heard as rising tones every few seconds.
