just started reencoding my classical cds and decided to try the scale suggestion from a few days ago. it seems to work pretty well with a few exceptions. in most cases the recommended gain is up, so if analysis shows greater than 32678 (with no clipping disabled) then I click on the hard limiter and process the file and then encode. i,m getting 89 every time but sometimes mp3 gain wants to turn the gain down -1.5 anyway. I seems that's on the more dynamic files that are nearer to 32678. should i ignore it?
btw-thanks to john 33 for wavegain
