Thanks. I followed the point about AL. But the ensuing passage appeared to suggest you need at least -16dB in inguz, for reasons I can't grasp but something to do with level matching. Anyway presumably if I play tracks at random and check for the presence of clipping in log.txt then I can tell whether there is any clipping. What does the log say "warning file clipped" or "clipping" or 0db?
