problem solved. it would appear that i was experiencing some type of buffer under-run in my system. not yet sure of the cause, but i suspect it is software related. a slight buffer adjustment and a computer re-start have corrected the glitching. first time i had experienced anything quite like this in my audio work. i was not stressing the system, but it could be one of the plugs i was using to spec out some possible (analog) eq changes i would make later as i listened to the material for the first time...
i perused the material in toto last night with nary a problem.
the hall in which this material was recorded has a sweet ambience with a nice tail-out, but it's a little 'thick' 130hz-200hz range. nicely, though, that bump there does help the tuba and euphonium 'speak' more in the space. the bass drum will need a little taming. i have a track with a trap kit, and that kick drum is eating most of the rest of the material alive on that particular tune; it's presence so pronounced that it's also skewed the stereo width and field depth...
and, i am pleased to report the receipt and deployment of a manley vari-mu and an api 5500 yesterday. sweet, they are!
thanks to all again for the insight.
as ever,
