Hi Mark,

What is your goal for your content? Why do you want to make it "fat"?
Do you want to have maximum gain with little dynamic range (similar to a
radio/tv advertisement)? Do you want to meet a broadcasting reference
level for your area -- and not violate that level?
Knowing more might give us more insight for a possible solution.
