![]() Because, decades back, I'd play a new vinyl 45 and wondered why when the song was fading, the fidelity improved! Why, a lot of early CDs sounded dull, lifeless, compared to vinyl counterparts (we agree).Īlso, what changes is detailed sound. Felt these DAWs (I prefer DAS = Digital Audio Software) is to blame for loudness wars. Just better managed in the digital world. Yeah, I heard of Loudness Wars, but to may ears, it started decades ago. Sometimes, just using the Light Amplify fixes the problem. Like, when I mix multi-tracks, then import into Goldwave, and "see" the ill results. Peaks, especially one or two, do nothing for audio (in my opinion). Why I never did like "audiophile" material, they preserve too many "Peaks". I mean, if audio is not strong enough for me, I go Peak hunting, and trim them, to raise RMS value. ![]() I'm GUESSING you can manually do what this "Light Amplify" does, but it would take a lot longer. Yes, there are time where I needed a tad less than "light", but never got around to modify the dots. You should have written the Goldwave Help ![]() * Some limiters will "look ahead" in the digital file so the wave can be attenuated without changing the wave shape.ĭoug, thank you much for the explanation. The can be a good thing if you like the modern constantly-loud style but it can be a bad thing if you enjoy musical dynamic contrast. Limiting is (usually*) instant but it would show-up as curves on the graph where the curve becomes flat the top & bottom limits, meaning that the output never goes above the limit no matter how "loud" the input gets.Ĭompression (and limiting) are the main "weapons" in the Loudness War and it's a big part of the "modern sound". Normal compression has an attack-time & release time. Almost all commercial recordings are compressed to some extent. This is type of dynamic compression with the quiet parts made louder and/or the loud parts quieter. The "louder" parts of the waveform are attenuated (relative to to the boosted lower-level signals). Can you give me a clue what the "Amplify Light" does.For quieter sounds (and the lower part of the waveform) the sound is amplified.
