What is your goal for your content?
To maximise volume and "presence".
Why do you want to make it "fat" ?
Ultimately so I can stream low bit rate oggs and retain
the maximum amount of presence, and generally to be able
to master this technique on linux.
Do you want to have maximum gain with little dynamic
range (similar to a
radio/tv advertisement)?
Absolutely yes !
Do you want to meet a broadcasting reference
level for your area -- and not violate that level?
That would be yet another reason if I was in a situation
where that was demanded.
Knowing more might give us more insight for a possible
solution.
Appreciate your interest and any specific hints or howto
about using Audacity and LADSPA plugins to achieve this
kind of audio rendering technique. (I'd rather use rezound
but it crashes on me).
