      Spoon,

      Here's the original file. Here's the dbPowerAmp-ed file. Here the filter configuration file. Listen at 23 seconds and you'll here 100+% clipping, despite the setting of 90% normalization.

      In this sound file, I'm recording a lecturer, and he's speaking with people in the audience, so dbPowerAMP needs to keep switching from extreme amplification to not-so-extreme amplification. This is the scenario where I'm consistantly encountering this problem.

        Can you try a test (I have a theory), convert that wave to file 44Khz 16 bit stereo and run the normalize on it, does it have the problem?

          Spoon,

          When I take the "before" file, and convert it without filters to a 44.1K 16 bit stereo wave file, and then convert that file with filters to a 32Kbps 22Khz MP3, the problem is greatly reduced, but it still exists. Over an hour lecture, this new method yields maybe 10 trouble spots, as opposed to the direct conversion which yielded maybe 40 trouble spots.
