Replay Gain: A how to informational

Weeeell as far as im concerned i got replay gain working on the Clip+ with MP3, FLAC and OGG files.

Heres how i did it:

1.: you would want to update the Clip+ Firmware to the newest 1.02.15

2.: get foobar 2000

3.: copy the stuff you want to work on to your harddisk, or youll grow a beard and get children while tagging

4.: point foobars media library to the folder with the files on your HD

5.: select all the files, right click => properties => tools => remove tags

Photobucket

6.: retag the stuff using freedb

7.: select desired files and do your prefered replay gain scan (per file, album, blabla)

      i recommend "Scan Selection as Albums (by tags)

8.: apply replay gain info, copy the files back to your Clip

9.: unplug and grow a beard while it’s “refreshing your media” (screw you little mean player thingy)

10.: enable replay gain, play a song and see the info for yourself under “track information”, you can fiddle around with the pre gain value to actually hear the effect.

PS:

Aww ■■■■. If you may have hoped to get the **bleep** Clip louder with applying replay gain, you thought wrong.
