Normalizing is not an audiophile thing to do. Nor is it good recording engineering practice. Not to say it isn't done, like the overcompressed mastering done all the time. If you have done proper gain staging, watched the levels, etc. there is no reason to normalize. -- Pat http://www.pfarrell.com/music/slimserver/slimsoftware.html _______________________________________________ audiophiles mailing list audiophiles@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/audiophiles
