Why do I sometimes hear a “thump” in the signal after using ClickFix?
The “thump” is usually the remnant of a repaired click, typically a large one. It is caused by damage to the signal surrounding the click. ClickFix (or other declicker) removes the click, exposing the thump. If you listen to the signal before ClickFix, the thump is there, but it is masked by the much louder click. It is difficult, if not impossible, for a declicker like ClickFix to determine whether the signal on each side of the click is damaged (part of a thump) or part of the original signal, if it doesn’t bear the characteristics of a click. So, it leaves the surrounding signal as-is. You can sometimes avoid this problem by using ForceFix to repair the click, rather than letting ClickFix repair it automatically.
