I've posted this thread in another section of HR but I haven't gotten a complete answer to my problem.
After encoding my wav files to mp3, I'm finding that they are clipping. I've tried several different methods....My multitrack software conversion, WinLame, and RazorLame. All methods have increased the level to varying degrees. On one particular track, WinLame had about a +1.5db increase to both channels, RazorLame was +.90db and my multitrack was +.50db. In the first two examples there was actual clipping of the mp3.
My conclusion is that this must be a common occurance when endcoding to mp3. My question is....what can I do to remedy the clipping situation? Is it ok to do further processing of the mp3 such as amplitude adjustments?
