Hello, I noticed a problem regarding DSP Effect: "Volume Normalize EBU R128" in the latest dBpoweramp R.2024-11-04.
If choosing a LUFS target, which would introduce clipping to some parts of the track, the Volume Normalisation is not done the the desired LUFS target, but just to LUFS value where no clipping will occour. For example desired LUFS=-12 , but dbPoweramp just creates file with LUFS=-14.2
So please disable this internal limitation of EBU R128!
Or maybe even better: introduce a new field where the user can define the maximum peak-value of the loudest sample. So if a user doesn't want to get any clipped sample he enters value=0 dB. If he allows slight clipping of some samples, he can enter +2 dB, or +3 dB.
And besides from this: Please change the unit of "Maximum Amplification" into dB-Values, which are standard in the work with Volumes and ease calculations. Like the unit "LUFS" in this dialog which is also a dB-unit. So instead of "x 2" use +6 dB, for "x 4" use +12 dB
