Hi Mixxx Team!

I noticed since Version 2.3.0 there is a litte annoying Bug in pre-listen volume.

When you first load a track with pre-listen analysis is made, so also Replay Gain calculation.

If you play a track which was not analysed (Replay Gain = 0) and you switch back to a track which is already analysed (e.g ReplayGain = -8dB), then for about 1 or 1.5 sec the already analysed track is played with an extrem loud volume. (Played with +8db) After that second the volume is corrected and it plays correct.

I find that bug very annoying, when the volume of your speakers is turned very loud, because it nearly blows your ears away.

I tried with flac and mp3, it is not depending on file format.

Please go to Preferences > Normalization and adjust the slider for "Initial boost without ReplayGain data"

Yes, gain or volume is independent from file format

Does not really have any effect. Tried different settings.

+db makes preview after analysis worse. -db has not effect

The problem comes from switching from a not analysed track to an analysed.

When you play the unanalyzed song do you stop the preview deck before loading and playing the analyzed track? If you didn't do this until now, does it make a difference if you do?
