RE: I use the pencil tool

Another RX option is to listen to what is being removed. You can hear when more than the click is removed and lower the setting. On a scale of 10, I normally use 1.4. If there is a stubborn click, I isolate the click (plus or minus hundredths of seconds) and use a higher setting.

50% of my listening is through a headphone system. I remove clicks I would not hear through my speakers but do with the headphone system.

Other than click removal, I use a 20 hz hi pass filter to remove the 9hz cart resonance. I wish there was a lower setting than 20 hz.

I did use a hum removal tool until I lowered 60 hz hum. Seeing the spectral data from my recordings has taught me a lot about my system. I had -60 db 60 hz hum. Now it's down to -81 db using a 64 db setting on my Sutherland with a Soundsmith Zephyr MIMC and -3 db setting on the Tascam.

Between tracks I sometimes use other tools. Other than that I think the less I do the better.
