It's unclear exactly what Jippers wants. If he wants to equalise the perceived loudness across tracks without affecting the dynamic range, then for sure ReplayGain with SmartGain on the Squeezebox is the correct solution.
But I kind of got the impression that he might be looking for something more like an AGC function - it probably depends on his listening environment. (For example I find the AGC feature of my Rio Karma DAP invaluable when listening in the car). I simply mentioned SOX as a possible means of achieving this, if it is indeed what he wants. -- cliveb Transporter -> ATC SCM100A ------------------------------------------------------------------------ cliveb's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=348 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=72031 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
