If the iTunes tags are like RG then the value stored isn't the level for the file, it's the required adjustment to get to the baseline. So if the baseline is 89dB then the measured loudness for the Dire Straits track must have been 100.5dB, louder than Clapton's at 92.4dB. If you switch auto gain on, they should end up sounding the same. -- radish ------------------------------------------------------------------------ radish's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=77 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57672 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
