In Reply to: Re: Do you lose resolution by recording to HD first and "Normalizing" to 0dB later? posted by Roland on March 18, 2002 at 18:50:40:
Is there something other than taking a few minutes to play what appear to be the widest groove modulations on the record, and see where they peak out? If it's not too involved, what is the test you're referring to..? Thanks for your help -Mike

Thats exactly what I'm referring too! You wouldn't go to lay bricks without mixing up mortar, why on earth would you try to record without taking a level. On live classical sessions I regulary mod up to within about 1-2db peak level on a live session without much dificulty. As I said before, coming off records your dynamic range is horrendous, so normalization or not isn't going to have any audible effect except that of level. But that is no excuse for poor recording practice.Regards
