13.10 and 13.11 overly amplified in auto normalization

Thanks for following up on this. Yes the meter is important for I use it to decide how to set the volume level. Better make it accurate.  The sound was in fact the same.

Here I compared the 3 meter displays from VP1309, VP1321 and WP. All three were after normalization, with VP done in the auto normalization during import, and WP done as auto normalize.

One can notice the top display in WP, is closer to VP1309 than VP1321, where there're some clipping displayed. Sound the same. Wish it can use the WP display as a standard.

BTW I took the time to compare the meter reading of clipping in both wavepad and VP, actually the current VP reading at 13.21 is accurate to wavepad level.
