    How to copy album gain to track gain while ripping?

    I am using dBpoweramp "Reference" R13.1, DSP Effects R3, and FLAC R12. My goal is to compute album RG while ripping CDs to FLACs, then copy the album gain tags to the track gain tags.

    I have two actions in my DSP tab. First, ReplayGain is set to calculate album gain only. Second, ID Tag Processing has two entries under the Map tab:

    replaygain_album_gain -> replaygain_track_gain
    replaygain_album_peak -> replaygain_track_peak

    What I expect is for each FLAC to have album and track RG tags with identical data. What I actually get are FLACs with only album RG tags. I also tried setting the RG DSP action to calculate both album and track gain, and then used the same Tag Processing action. In this case my FLACs again have the "correct" album and track RG tags rather than the album tags copied over the track tags.

    Am I doing something wrong? Or should this work, and perhaps there is a bug or some kind of unadvertised feature at play?

    Thanks!

    You would have to use the [id tag update] utility codec to do the mapping as album gain is written after the file is written.
