As a braking sound
With the new Lexington update when I listen to a project and I stop at any point using the spacebar, I can hear just for 1 or 2 ms a short sound as a braking or something like that, never heard before with previous updates.
Am I the only one to hear that?

No. I tried with and without "Options>On Stop, Rewind to Now Marker".
I get a slight plop sometimes, depending on where in the waveform I stopped, but it's the same regardlss of whether I use the spacebar or the transport buttons.
You don't have a super-realistic tape recorder simulation plug, do you?

I was getting "lingering" on stop today, but not sure what was the cause. Where I left off I had a single audio track isolated with only Ozone 7 modules I was demoing on it. I just assumed this was Ozone 7 (due to its lookahead), but the delay in stopping was quite noticeable even at low buffer settings.
Do you get the same if you global bypass (E) effects in your project?

Sometimes for me, especially when using my Korg NanoKontrol 2 that I got for Christmas, when I stop the project, it hang for a few seconds and then goes all the way back to the beginning rather than where the marker was. Kind of annoying. But, I don't think it is related to the NK2 because it happened to me when at my keyboard last night as well.

Above the track area there is an Option dropdown. Go to the setting: "On Stop, Rewind to Now Marker"

Right. I have that. This doesn't happen every time. Only sometimes. Started with Kingston. Maybe 1 out of every 15 times or so...and before it resets to the beginning...it always hangs for about 15 seconds.

H'm. Bunch of oddities creeping into new releases.
Thanks for the heads-up.

Winter officially began on December 22 UTC and many people still have not gotten around to winterizing their DAW. While performance may have been peppy in the summer using the 20W-50, if you have not yet switched to a low viscosity blend, you may find your DAW is starting slow or stuttering, or laboring on steep grades with multiple tracks. And of course you should have checked the antifreeze. Paradoxically overheating with low buffers may be the symptom of ice in the liquid cooling system. And of course there is, as in your case, the issue of traction. Driving your DAW on icy mornings with standard plugins is a foolish risk for you and dangerous to those listening to your mix. While you may think your reflexes can handle the demand, once the slide has begun there is little you can do to avoid disaster. The short braking sound you hear is the antilock system, introduced in all Lexington models, as it attempts to compensate for slippery winter conditions. While this can get you over a small patch, it will fail when you find yourself fishtailing on black ice. The only reliable solution is to install traction plugins on all of your tracks. These plugs are specially designed to contain abrasion resistant studs that grip the surface by actually biting into the mix. While some people claim they can get the same result by just putting a couple of traction limiters on the main outs, these solutions are only effective with heavy movers like buses. Your individual tracks are more like sports cars and without their own traction plugs, you are likely to just slide into the main bus when it stops. Take this warning seriously and you will be able to enjoy your winter mixing safely. Ignore it and we will probably see you posting, as so many have, with problems stopping your project at the end.

[SOLVED]
In fact I realized that this issue is present only in the project I was working during the time Lexington update was out.
On the rest of my projects, the stop using the spacebar is OK as usual.

Do you mean projects STARTED in Lexington, or projects started in previous releases and now opened in Lexington?
Because Lexington is not "was out". Lexington "IS out". It's the latest release (at time of writing).
