Instead of a percentage of sound level? for recognizing when a track begins and ends, it would be much more intuitive to use a db scale. How does percentage equate to db in this instance? Instead of setting to, say, 1%, a setting of-45db or -50db would ensure a correct sound level to start or end without having to keep experimenting with a percentage that could change depending on the current sound level of your audio file. To me this is much simpler and much more intuitive.
That's a possible, we'll table the idea, thank you. Percentage <-> dB is a logarithmic scale
