Where it differs from the other applications of this principle is that +the gain adjustments are applied directly to adjusting the scaling of the +samples. In other words, the option to write tags that can be read by other +applications to apply the gain adjustment does not exist, so the adjustments are +made directly to the data within the file. + +Therefore, in the strictest meaning of the word, this process is NOT lossless. +However, with the application of dithering to the output, the losses can be +minimized and are, in any event, unlikely to be audible to the human ear. + +So in simple terms, the program reads in wave files, analyses them, calculates +and displays recommended gain adjustments (track and album), and then applies +the adjustments directly to the wave data, if requested. +EOF |
