That's kind of a relative phrase, Hugh. :) How low might that be?

Hugh, I'm hoping the log file will tell you something about my problem.

Yes, definitely seems that the gain setting isn't being picked up
properly. You only have one InguzDSP.exe.config file, and it's in the
same folder as InguzDSP.exe, right?

Damn! I had two instances of Slimserver installs! Only one is actually
running, but I was going to the older (defunct) install to adjust the
config file. Thanks for that suggestion, Hugh. Talk about brain dead!

Woo-hoo! Thank Hugh. That did it.
I had to crank the Gain down to -19dB, but that cleaned it up fine. I
guess my description of what I was hearing was pretty bad! :-) The one
remaining question, though, is why does Inguz allow any processing at
all to happen even if EQ is set to None? Recall
Partly to keep volume fairly constant (otherwise you'd see a sudden jump
when adjusting EQ away from flat), and partly so it can respond in the
middle of a track...

Makes sense. Does reducing the gain like this hurt things in any way?
Reduction in effective bits, or anything like that?

No... unless it's *way* low, in which case there are I think three
risks. 1) worse S/N ratio, 2) more amp power needed, and 3) if
anything suddenly starts playing at really full volume, more chance of
damaging your speakers ;-)
(The other night I had a power glitch or something, which caused a
I've discovered a very odd problem. It appears to be very specific to
the Alison Krauss and Union Station Live 2 disc set.
This may get a bit long...
I have all my music ripped to my HD, of course, and I've been using
Inguz for a while. I use EAC and the FLAC (either 1.11a or 1.12, can't
I can't help you with the CD as I don't own it, but I can say that the
gain control works for me. I needed to kill any instances of the
InguzDSP process and restart slimserver for the new gain settings to
take effect but after that it was fine.

Ah. I didn't do that. The instructions said to just FF to the next
track. Although at one point I did try stopping and restarting
Slimserver, but I did not kill the inguz process.

The InguzDSP process is restarted for each track. You should be able to
change the gain
Yeah, that's what I did, Kim, but it didn't work. The log kept saying
-16dB.

One of the things I'm wondering is whether my description of what I'm
hearing sounds like clipping, to those who have heard it themselves?

Clipping doesn't sound like that. It's distortion, like when someone
sings into a mic too loudly. It doesn't change the pace of the music.
Which config file are you editing exactly?

I tried Marc's method to insure that the Gain setting would work. I
don't think it is; I had the Gain set to -22dB. Here's what I got out
of the log.txt file:
