How can I get gain of -12dBFS RMS?
I don't understand the difference, but even I can see
that the manual describes -B and -b options for the
gain effect, in terms of RMS rather than peak levels.
I do not know if one or other of these options will do
what you want.
Those options are for equalising channels using either peak or RMS
value as reference.
Ah, I read about the equalising and then forgot it...
For a fixed scaling, the peak and RMS values are affected equally.
Dividing every sample by two, say, will halve both the peak and RMS
values.
Yes. So does that mean that the OP should use something like the
'stat' effect to find out the peak RMS level of the audio file,
then work out how much gain or attenuation is needed, then use
a 'gain' effect with that calculated value?
