Using the preferences window, try editing your EQ settings: low EQ should be around 60-100, high eq should be around 2000-4000. Also try using the regular EQ mode, not the simple low-cpu mode. Your replay gain boost of 9 is really high. Try 4 or 5. Also try reducing the vinyl gain to 1 (you ma

Ryan: I'll try to reproduce over the weekend. I've got some family in town the rest of the week, and I haven't headed back to the studio to hook up our gear from last night yet. The sqlite file is rather large (18 Mb) so forgive this mediafire link: http://www.mediafire.com/?d6bi1rmvsg3fkpp

Hey Nathan, The gain issue is troubling. I have long suspected the replay-gain analysis code of correctness issues but haven't ever dug into it. I think the gain blast you experienced was a result of replaygain analysis detecting some gigantic value for the gain. Can you reproduce it with the same

So, I did a gig tonight running 1.10 (x64) and libportaudio2 from the ubuntu ppa with a Hercules rmx. Every once in a while, the gain on a playing track would skyrocket, causing a noticible "pop" in the sound and blasting the crap out of my poor crowd. This gain increase was accompanied by a swell
