The idea was to provide a way to listen to an album just as it was on the physical media. The sole purpose of audiophile gain is to bring the pop album that's 20 dB louder than the classical album into line. If all you want is to minimize manual volume adjustments then use track gain exclusively. If you want to listen to an album as it was on disc use album gain for the whole album.
Feel free to use RG in any other way that suits you best but stop telling everybody else that your way is better just because your understanding of RG is different. RG definitions aside, I'm still not convinced that your way of applying disc gain vs. my way of applying album gain leads to fewer manual volume adjustments when listening to an entire multi disc album. Unlike you, I'm willing to give in if you can provide a conclusive example. And no, to just reiterate your maths won't do. -s. -- slimpy ------------------------------------------------------------------------ slimpy's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1524 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=57543 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/ripping
