Replaygain does NOT "report clipping". It merely works out how much gain to apply to bring the levels up or down to an arbitrary normal level. You can't simply equate lots of gain reduction to "clipping" - it doesn't work like that. Use Foobar 2000 to set replaygain. -- Phil Leigh You want to see the signal path BEFORE it gets onto a CD/vinyl...it ain't what you'd call minimal...
