Re: Dynamic Range plugin

We now have DR built into Foobar natively, with this component (and the True Peak Scanner), so can use what we need. It's brilliant for mastering as I can get an instant readout of many different variables, track to track.

Since you’re a mastering engineer, I have to remind you that foobar’s “DR” plug–in is an approximation.

Yeah, it's not a problem for me as I've never taken much notice of DR. I mostly use LUFS-I and peak LUFS-S to give me a quick idea of how loud a track is likely to be before listening. As I said above, those figures have documentation and standardisation, and are widely used in the audio industry, unlike DR which I've rarely heard an engineer refer to.
