Yes, you can achieve a more powerful punch that way, but it's not the same as what the OP needs. Heck, with that method, he just might blow-out his cheap monitor speakers! ;-) Besides, editing an audio file is not something you should do without practice. If you're not careful, you can destroy the sound quality by "clipping-off" the extreme tips of the waveform. Sure, distortion can sometimes add a desirable effect, but too much of a good thing, well, you know... In my early days as an "amateur sound guy", i destroyed some valuable live recordings due to my ignorance of clipping. Yeah, i didn't realize i was editing the *ACTUAL FILE*, and not a copy of it! Had to learn the hard way. :-'( When you're an audiophile, those kinds of screw-ups are devastating. Magical musical moments are a rarity. -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
