Version: 2.3-GIT (using KDE 4.4.3) OS: Linux Hi, IMHO it is really needed to have a pre-gain setting if replay gain is used. So it would be possible to set: * +6 dB for replaygained files * -3 dB for not replaygained files This way replaygained music would not be so much lower in volume compared to other sounds (e.g. Youtube). Of course clipping prevention has to be included. Audacious and Exaile provide exactly these settings. Reproducible: Didn't try
Somewhy automatic bug closing didn't work here, but this kind of functionality is now implemented with commit https://invent.kde.org/multimedia/amarok/-/commit/8b8cf39340be7c3973880c4ed3df5d64df9abaa4
Git commit 8b8cf39340be7c3973880c4ed3df5d64df9abaa4 by Tuomas Nurmi. Committed on 08/06/2025 at 20:10. Pushed by nurmi into branch 'master'. Apply pre-gain if ReplayGain is active and use fallback if no value available This should make ReplayGained volumes differ less from other system volume levels, and help with volume spikes if some tracks don't have ReplayGain tags. I don't think these values are worth making customizable (enough volume control levels in systems nowadays anyhow) so hard-coded to -3 dB default fallback, and 3 dB extra pre-gain if ReplayGain is active and tags are available.
