1. Buy decent headphones
2. Disable equalizer and tone
3. Disable any sound effects from os
4. Use not especially high resolution audio files, but at least mp3 >= 192 kbit/s
I would suggest disabling the equalizer and tone. The carpenters probably knew what they were doing and wanted their music to be listened to as they made it.
And what exactly do you want ?
You want to sort the albums of an album artist by year ? That is what one can do as I showed.
Or do you want to do a multiple sort of all albums, first by Album artist, then by year ?
Yes, we've had that in the past. It seems that on your device it looks for Poweramp as if the storage had been removed and a new storage added. Search these forums, perhaps there had been a workaround.
I could think of two ways a limiter could work :
- compress the dynamics, as shown in the wikipedia :
- preventively reduce the pre-amplification by the amount of the highest eq increase minus headroom
But it seems it does neither.
@maxmp : what does the Limiter do ?
