    I see the same after max zooming in a single track mode. Does it mean that red line shows nothing special?


    I don't think that it has any significance other than showing where the -infinity level is, no.

    I'm pretty sure that's a 'missing samples' indication - implying that your clip is not contiguous in terms of having valid samples in it. If you look at the waveform carefully and magnify it at the places where the red line stops briefly, what do you see?

    You may need to zoom in more than that... it would only take a single missing sample.
