Let \(\Sigma_A\) be the spectrum of a semisimple commutative regular Tauberian Banach algebra \(A\) and \(\text{span} \Sigma_A\) the norm closed linear subspace of \(A^*\) spanned by \(\Sigma_A\). The norm spectrum of \(\varphi\in \text{span} \Sigma_A\) is defined by \[ \sigma (\varphi)= \overline {\bigl\{\varphi (a\cdot) \in A^*: a\in A\bigr\}} \cap \Sigma_A. \] The algebra \(A\) is said to have property (S) if \(\sigma (\varphi)\neq \emptyset\) for all \(\varphi \in\text{span} \Sigma_A\). Let \(I_\varphi\) denote the closed ideal \(\{a\in A: \varphi (a\cdot) =0\}\). It is proved that the space \(\Sigma_A\) with Gelfand topology is discrete if and only if for all \(\varphi\in \text{span} \Sigma_A\) the norm spectrum \(\sigma (\varphi)\) is equal to the zero set of the ideal \(I_\varphi\). Moreover, necessary and sufficient conditions for an ideal of \(A\) to be synthesizable are given. The second part of the paper deals with the Fourier algebra \(A(G)\) and the Figá-Talamanca-Herz algebra \(A_p(G)\) of a locally compact group \(G\). Let \({\mathcal M}^d_2 (G)\) denote a \(C^*\)-algebra generated by left translation operators on \(L_2(G)\). It is proved that the algebra \(A(G)\) has property (S) iff the canonical trace is faithful on \({\mathcal M}^d_2 (G)\) and iff \({\mathcal M}^d_2 (G)= {\mathcal M}^d_2 (G_d)\), where \(G_d\) denotes the discrete group \(G\). Moreover, it is proved that \(G_d\) is an amenable group iff \(G\) is amenable and \(A_p(G)\) has property (S).
