Analyze that in Orban.....For instance, to get the final highest peak to -.5db my final limeter ceiling had to be as low as -1.5! But if I render a wav the final highest peak is....gues.....-1.5.
But in defense of Orban, I have re-checked using 2 other real-time tools (not batch process) and they all came up with the same results.
You're absolutely right Richie, I had a wave file that ended up at -14.1LUFS, but when I made it into an mp3, it ended up at -13.2LUFS. Bummer.

EDIT: So Dave, I'm going to send you the mp3, and if you would, could you make the adjustment that you would for the contest and then send it back to me. That way I can test it to see what's happening. Also I'll post here what I find out.
