Sup y'all... I tried starting a help request, but after three messages over three days, I'm here listening to crickets... whats good staff??????????????????????????

anyway - loyal community, long time user here, and I've never used auto gain... over many years and thousands of gigs, I had set all of my gain levels for tracks manually... the software has always saved them - i set them once, and happily kept it moving.

not sure why but recently i purchased a controller and felt compelled to play around with some features I've never used, like auto gain. i understand the premise - you set the desired db level, check the auto gain box, and when loading a track, the software sets it to the db level you have selected.... designed to keep all song levels similar ... for the most part.

so when playing around with my denon mc7000, the first session, and choosing the recommended 92 db and checking auto gain, i noticed any track id play was coming in way too hot - painfully in the red. after playing maybe 15-20 songs i unchecked the auto gain box, and quit the software.

i never reanalyzed anything, never rescanned tags, nothing like this at all while i had the auto gain box checked. the next day while the box was now unchecked, i realized every song i was playing was coming in hot. songs I've played thousands of times (and did not play while i had the auto gain box checked) were now in the red on my level meters. i had a wedding, and i had to turn all the songs i played down one by one after loading and before mixing... not fun.

-why is my entire library now peaking if i didn't reanalyze it while auto gain was checked?
-is this a bug in 1.9.5?
-is there anyway to revert back to my old gain settings for each song... rebuilding data base or anything???
-should i re-check auto gain but choose a lower db level to try to at least get songs back under the red?

any help is greatly appreciated... thx fam
