RE: LP recordings: Normalization and limiter

I thought I was saying that you cannot increase the resolution of digital recording through normalization. In other words, if the loudest peak is 6-dB below full scale, you will not increase resolution by normalizing the recording so its peak is raised to 0-dB full scale. All you are doing is raising the volume of your digital recording. If the loudest peak is 6-dB below full scale on a 24-bit recording, you have 23-bit resolution. Normalizing the recording cannot increase resolution beyond 23-bits.
