[SOLVED] Normalize AFTER encoding files.

Post by rotong »

The normalization process is much much slower than i.e DBPoweramp. I've discovered that this process takes place BEFORE conversion and not AFTER the encoding stage. I.E. FLAC to MP3: The FLAC files to normalize are larger than MP3 so that it takes much longer to normalize. I did the test and the process after encoding is significantly faster in XREcode 3!

Is it possible to change the order of the normalization process?

Normalization is not happening "before". In order to apply normalization, value is calculated from the source file, and then it's applied to the output file while it's created. Maybe it's MP3Gain you're referring to?

Thanks for you reply.
But why take it so much longer to normalize files in XR3 compared to DBPoweramp? ;)

How exactly you applied Normalizing in XRECODE, i.e. to audio or to tags?
