3rd Party Plugins - (fb2k) / Re: foo_truepeak True Peak Scanner
Last post by wojak -
Of course results are different. With RG you can only use a fixed truepeak method. In other words it does not base the amount of upsampling on the content.
The truepeakscanner upsamples based on the content (up to a minimum of 192k if I remember correctly).
So the used upsampling methods differ, therefore also the results.
I don't exactly understand why this tool should give the exact information as the original DR component which is ancient.
Why not use the exact info from the scan resultscreen? Everything including LRA is there.
Only thing that could be better is to remove all Album stuff from the tracklines and show this info (preferably on top) as a separate line.
And it would be nice if tracknumbers&length would be included in the grid (eg total tracks/ total time for the album line).
I am not sure if upsampling is the only difference, because taking 48kHz file and scanning it with RG with 8x (giving 384k) and scanning it with TP scanner set to 384k gives different Gain and TPeaks (which then give different PLR and LUFS). The only issue with it is that I already have scanned tens of thousands files with RG and started to scan other files with TP scanner and use "prevent clipping" option (without applying gain) so the effect will be different. Moreover I have different releases of the same albums and check if they are sonically the same (comparing TP, DR, LRA, LUFS, PLR) so having different results on different releases makes it impossible. I have to rescan all the files once again.
I did not say that the text results should look exactly the same as in old comonent. I just suggested that it would be convinient to be able to automatically export the results to the file (not having to clik "copy" than creating plain file and pasting the results - the old component just had an option to do this (or don't)). and if we get that option it would be nice to have everything included.
