Another way to put is that RG tags are there so you not have to alter the sound of the file.
This then implies that the RG tag is an order to the playback system to "play at this level" , the whole thing hinges around some kind of nominal level(s) . So you can turn it on and of as needed if you have such tags, example if you have a party and want background music just turn on the gain adjustments for the acassion, and then turn them off when it's time for a hifi OCD session ;) That said it does exist some very destructive ways to do volume normalisation by actually alter the files, I think it is somewhat popular for mp3 and to use with players that does not have RG making all your files play at the same level by compressing them yourself :-/ this is bad. -- Mnyb -------------------------------------------------------------------- Main hifi: Touch + CIA PS +MeridianG68J MeridianHD621 MeridianG98DH and assorted amps SiriuS, Classe' Primare and Dynadio speakers, Contour 4 Contour Center, and Contour 1.3SE rear ch.
