Itunes version of replay gain. They have to be different you know. It adds it as a proprietary comment field ( I can't remember the name right now). If you look at the extended tags in mp3tag it will show up as a comment and the field will contain a bunch of numbers. It converts to a value very close to the replay gain value and SC will add these together. It shouldn't. You should use one or the other. So if you have a -8 replay gain you will actually be lowering your volume about 16 db's in playback in SC. Only a problem if you have both and smart gain set. It's been a problem for me because I had to give up using soundcheck with my ipods and they won't use replay gain. I wanted to use replay gain at home so I ended up getting rid of the soundcheck tags from all my albums. I have not checked to see if this is still true with 7.2.1 but I haven't seen anything in the notes about it being fixed. It could be a real problem (actually it is a real problem for ipod users) if you have a high positive replay gain and having it doubled. -- Nonreality -IF THE RULE YOU FOLLOWED BROUGHT YOU TO THIS, OF WHAT USE IS THE RULE.- HTTP://www.last.fm/user/nonreality ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Nonreality's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=15723 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34122 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
