Mainstream/top 40 record labels are finally starting to release music in 24-bit 48 KHz. My car can't play 48 KHz, it has to be 44.1 KHz, doesn't seem to matter if it's 24-bit or 16-bit.
That means I have to resample some my music. Resampling 48 KHz to 44.1 KHz will likely result in clipping, if the mastered track is already approaching -0dBFS.
If I use the DSP to resample, the audio would be clipped. However, if I also use a DSP normalize to -0.1dBFS, will this preserve audio data, that would be clipped if I didn't?
Note that I'm working with lossless FLAC source files, the output will be ALAC due to car limitations.
