RG value in file vs RG value showed inside MC
« on: February 01, 2013, 03:16:48 pm »

Can I create a column in MC that shows the RG value in the way it's shown in the file itself? Instead of the current way RG is showed which is slightly offset (yep, I've read the thread on the background to why this is so).

You can use the following expression in a calculated user field or an expression column:

Delimit(
    FormatNumber(
        Math(
            Replace(
                RemoveCharacters([Replay Gain], dB)
            ,/,,.)
        +6)
    ,2)/
,/ dB)


It does not read the physical file tag, but it reverts the math that corrects the difference between the 89 dB (file tag) and 83 dB (database) reference values and displays the result in the familiar format.

I use:

  regex([replay gain],/#(-?\d+)(.*)$#/, -1)Math([[R1] + 6])[R2]
