Hi,

I just committed a change to Gigedit which allows fine graded positive gain 
values, and therefore I dropped the old "Gain +6dB" checkbox from Gigedit. So 
you can now set any gain value between -96dB..+96dB.

Before that change, only -96dB..0dB and +6dB were allowed, which was quite 
unpleasant since sometimes you just need to raise volume by e.g. +1.5dB or so 
which was so far not possible at all.

Does this break behaviour with the original GigaStudio player? Unless you 
retain the old allowed value range of -96..0,+6 then definitely no; because if 
you checked "+6 dB" before then Gigedit will simply show it now as 6.00 value 
and vice versa if you set the value to exactly 6.00 in Gigedit and save the 
.gig file then you get the exact same data on gig file level as if you were 
using the +6dB checkbox before.

However if you are using any new range value like e.g. +2.00 dB or +12.43dB? 
Well, I am not sure, but I am optimistic that even that should work as 
expected with Tascam's player, even though never supported by the original 
GigaStudio instrument editor. Because if you were checking "+6dB" before, that 
actually did not set a flag, it was always using a gain value on gig file 
level perfectly linear to any other possible -96dB..0dB value, which suggests 
that Tascam multiplied that value from the gig file with a constant factor to 
get the final floating point gain factor, exactly like we do in LS.

If I am wrong, you tell me. ;-)
