I put RG tags on everything, track RG and Album RG. This adds text value tags to gain control and peak levels to avoid clipping. This info is then applied by the player on playback, based on the text values from the RG analysis u previously applied. It all sounds complicated but all it is, is a way to keep the volume at a relatively similar amount of loudness, so u don't need to adjust the volume knob manually. It's very useful for random mixes. Once u analyze and write all the necessary tags, and enable smartgain or whatever on playback, ur basically all set. I have some classical and it seems to work on mine, but it's not even 10% of my collection (I think) so I can't really speak to that. using: win7 64 + lms 7.9 & duet & ipads w/the logitech app, and ipeng on an ipod http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/various_artists_logic & http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/compilations ------------------------------------------------------------------------ BJW's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=58242 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110369 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
