[liveact]

Hello!

I have seen the Izotope Ozone 7 have a new feature,You can preview the final MP3 coding,it is important because the WAV to MP3 conversion can generate extra decibels,and your audio might cliped at the end.

Anybody know a free alternative VST for this?

Thank You very much!

Ugh. Confused about how that is possible. I was under the impression that the volume gain with MP3 compression largely depends on the used algorithm, quality, and bitrate settings (and the file itself of course). I could be wrong of course.

Btw, if something like that exists as freeware, i'd be highly interested in that too. Do some audio editors maybe feature this?

Not my thread, but i thought i'd bump this anyway. If someone knows about an audio editor, or plugin which does this, please, elaborate. I'd be highly interested.
