This is not a problem in search of a solution.
I had this random thought pop into my head this morning: If I compress an audio wave at 4:1, render that to WAV, then re-compress that at 4:1 and render that to WAV, would that be the same as using 8:1 compression to begin with? I don't know any of the math behind this stuff, so I have no idea.
I did notice the second 4:1 render's audio wave was different than the first one. Not much, but noticeable. It didn't look as if it was doubled or halved - nothing that large. I also see that the file sizes as shown in the file's Properties show the re-compressed file as slightly larger.
I didn't bother stacking two compressor FX on the original track - would that produce the same results as above?
