I am using the software, and it's worth every penny. I have the pro version where there is a rounding feautere. I first declip the file and then use the rounding function to rebuild the "life", that can be lost while lowering the level. It works very well and many of my CD's that I could't stand listning to, are after using the SeeDeclip program sounding MUCH better. Of course it can not make high end recordings out of crap, but it does indeed improove the sound quality of many of the too high mastered CD's. The low price in mind, it is the best tweek/value for money I ever made. But try it yourself and let your EARS be the judge, and not all forms of theories. -- callesoroe ------------------------------------------------------------------------ callesoroe's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=22693 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57872 _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/audiophiles
