so it makes sense for ummagumma when there are clearly different yet smaller differing values, but not for other 2 disc albums even if they have larger differences, but are studio only? or live only?
what sense does that make? personally, i'd contend that any value greater than 1db (difference) is always discernable, under otherwise quiet listening conditions. but as i've said, thats a subjective judgment call. i've checked a number of multidisc sets i have... some live, some studio, some compilations, some more than 2 discs... etc, and i have found it is not uncommon for a db difference of up to 3 or 4 db between a "highest" disc and a "lowest" one. and thats only on the spot checking i have done so far. my question is why WOULDN'T you do per disc album RG? if it brings each disc to a reference level, and does so more accurately than your way, (which there can be no question mathematically that it does) than why not do it? -- MrSinatra www.LION-Radio.org Using: Squeezebox2 (my home) / SBR (parent's home) / SBC (my home) - w/SC 7.3.2b - Win XP Pro SP3 - 3.2ghz / 2gig ram - D-Link DIR-655 ------------------------------------------------------------------------ MrSinatra's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2336 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57543 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
