mp3gain and aacgain directly modify the audio data (they use APE tags only to store information for their own undo functionality), and do not use Replay Gain tags. This means that SmartGain etc. does nothing with such files (unless Replay Gain ID3 tags have been added with some other method (e.g. during encoding by lame) - in this case, they might actually conflict (however, since ReplayGain isnt't part of the MP3 spec, this rarely happens, as most players ignore it. LMS, however, most likely will use MP3 ID3 Replay Gain tags)). Note that using these different approaches (metadata/direct audio data modification/both) for different file types may also lead to unexpected results.
