Well, FWIW I exported all the replay gains and worked out what percentage of my FLAC music collection (v roughly equally split between rock, pop, classical, opera) would not have the full track RG applied by LMS due to clipping: 14.9% (as it is) 4.52% - with 3dB more headroom 0.33% - with 6dB more headroom 0.18% - with 7dB more headroom So basically another 6dB headroom would capture pretty much everything, and I would have thought that is within the SB3's 24bit DAC and noise floor of a decent system. Would be great if LMS had a pre-gain feature of some sort to help with this. But I guess I can either use 'loudgain' (https://github.com/Moonbase59/loudgain) as suggested by MainSqueeze, or just subtract 6.00 from all the existing RGs which presumably amounts to the same thing and my CPU will thank me!
