if i use replaygain on an encoded mpc and then decode back to wav in order to burn a audio cd, will the audio cd still sound ok (normal volume,...)

If you think th mpc sound good.
It's the same quality as the mpc.

Yes, but perhaps not the same volume, which is what he was asking.

You might want to check if the command line decoder provides a switch to turn of ReplayGain.

You could try Winamp with the Diskwriter Plugin and use the Musepack 1.7.9i(Beta) Winamp Plug-in with "Replaygain Off, ClipProtect Album-Based".

You can find the PlugIn with DirectConnect (http://www.chaostar.org/phorum/list.php?f=1)

Or he could just get it from Frank Klemm's site.

Better not use the 0.90b (=1.7.9i I suppose) if you want the original unattenuated loudness. See this thread: http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/showth...d=7056#post7056
