A reason I'd like an Avisynth solution is that I don't discover the problem until I have set up a script for processing and I SEE the boosted right channel. If I had nothing to do to the audio, I could let it go unchanged. But you can see that if I need to do something as simple as normalizing, the normalizing won't work as those inaudible spikes every 3 samples max out the normalizing logic, that is, normalizer cannot boost it any more as the louder ones are already maxed out.

Edit: Also, I have a lot of files to process, and adding a line of code in the Avisynth script (if there is such a line) is much faster than doing an Audacity step to process and fix the audio file before finalizing (and running) my Avisynth script. Plus I'm not crazy about notching out something.
