garym said "way back when, I did a mass RG with foobar2000 of maybe 50 or 60 thousand tracks. took a while but was easy. My only warning is that depending on how the foobar "filter" is set, it may screw up the compilation RG info (by not treating the compilations as an album because of the different track artists). I forget what I did, but I was able to pull up all my compilations by themselves, and use a different pattern to identify to foobar what constituted an "album" and fix those. Whatever it was was easy as I recall.
Now I add RG to all new FLAC rips (or mp3 conversions from the FLACs) as a matter of my standard work flow as I go.... " It would nice to know what you did w your compilation albums. In the case which I just applied the replaygain it will not be an issue as it is all one artist. I went thru LMA and downloaded all the Dave Alvin tunes I do not already have. I then listened to the quality and deleted or replaced the ones which were unacceptable. They are all in their own folder and ARTIST and ALBUM tag is the same for all tracks. Actually 2 folders 1 acoustic and 1 electric. aubuti said "LMS has a nice setting called "SmartGain" that will automatically choose track gain or album gain depending on whether the tracks in the current playlist are from the same album or a mix from different albums." Thanks for this tip. I did not find the setting on the Web UI so I went to one of my Touches and found it. -- dasmueller ------------------------------------------------------------------------ dasmueller's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=38035 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=93126 _______________________________________________ ripping mailing list ripping@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/ripping
