What is the optimal target volume for VDJ when using VDJ. MG3Gain defaults to 89dB and a quick google sees people using between this and 100dB.
Considering VDJ's autogain features, what do people use now and what, if any, dB level would VDJ recommend?
Cheers,
Roy

Hi Roy,
I have used 94 for years and it's fine. Loud enough for output but no distortion.

89dB is universally a safe sound pressure level. Prolonged exposure to 90 - 95dB+ may result in hearing loss.

Pardon?
Sorry had to be done ;-)
Yes, prolonged listening to high dB music is bad for us, but it doens't stop us going out to clubs, bars and pubs every weekend and subjecting ourselves to it either in front of or behind the decks...
Anyway, this is about the input as opposed to the output. Setting the corrent level in the source will ensure less time spent on gain control though the evening!

I use MP3Gain (also the mod for MP4s) and I make all my files 90dB. When I raise that level, many of the tunes will have clipping (indicated by MP3Gain)...

Come on, the db setting e.g 94 doesn't mean your playing out at 94db, remember you go through your soundcard, amp etc.
Pushing this to the max so you have a fighting chance is what it's all about, I do 93.
