It was about the "Wave From
Hell" example relating to the question of whether we should avoid
normalizing to 0 dB.
This is something that's completely within your control. Why blame
M-Audio? Oh, never mind - this is the Internet where manufacturers are
always responsible for problems that users create. You shouldn't be
normalizing any waveform to 0 dBFS is you care about quality.
I disagree with all of that.
I do remember some discussion about a "wave file from hell," a test that
someone derived to test or prove something, but I don't remember what it
was.
