That seemed strange to me all along with all the varying playback levels that
can occur. And indeed now it shows that the effect is dynamically applied. Thus
changing the volume of a wave file does nothing but change the ATH level with

To be fair to Myke, it shows that his hypothesis does in
fact make sense and has long been a major consideration
among the codec developers. Perhaps he is using an older
version of Lame in which it was in fact a fixed function and
he can perceive the subtleties involved.

A little research, however, would have shown that he was
reinventing the wheel.
