OK. Then, I would have one question: why can I come to different results for several exports of the same session? I mean, I already had cases in which my master finally end up to +1.0 dB, and the export after to -0.1dB (without changing anything), and so on. I'm not speaking of big differences, but enough to make it hard to optimize my dynamic before mastering. I really thought that it was linked to realtime processing, but if not, I'd be interested in understanding what is behind all of this. > > --p > _______________________________________________ > Linux-audio-user mailing list > Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx > http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user -- Aurélien _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
