The MCA Records version I have is DR10. Earlier this week I purchased the DJM Records 825 487-2 made in West Germany that is supposed to have it at DR13. I haven't received the disc yet. It will be interesting to compare.

I just analyzed my MFSL Madman (1989) CD...and I get DR 13 in 19.0.67

Anyhoo - that WG DJM is awesome. All of the mid 80's DJM pressings are a wonderful thing.

I think I would like to use this feature. (Improved audio analysis and volume leveling (R128))
However, I have two concerns:
1. That R128 volume leveling NOT alter dynamic range or alter sound quality in any other way, and
2. Do the calculated levels alter the actual file in any way, other than to create a tag value?

It sounds like the R128 method (volume leveling), without Peak Normalize is what I want to or do I have it backwards?
Sorry if this has already been answered, but the posts here seem somewhat contradictory.

Neither Volume leveling or Peak Level Normalize alter dynamic range.

No changes are made to the audio data in your files.

This is exactly what you want.

And as Matt mentioned - "No audio is harmed during the making of this R128 volume analysis" :)

Matt:
The Dynamic Range (R128) is the R128-derived Loudness Range (LRA).
