i tried somthing different in freac and i didnt realize this before. the 'preserve replay gain' option in the tags section of the preferences allows the replay gain to be reset with the customization. so ill be trying out some new setups with this in mind. if the preserve replay gain option is set, you wont get too many interesting results when customizing because the application of the customization kind of goes backward instead of forward. youll notice some screenshots of my setup with the customization with the flac option window and the dsp window. the freac website said version 1.1.5 of freac had increased dsp performance by 70 percent. i really noticed a huge difference so far in the customization. ill still be trying out new setups with variation of the rounds heading towards better quality on this blog because it seems i can get the quality adjusted towards the better each time. flac allows very good customization
