Sorry if I missed this, but my understanding of normalization is that you find the highest value "a peak" then multiply the bits uniformly by a factor that will bring the peak to 0db. I don¹t see why multiplying would cause errors since the magnification factor is uniformly applied to the sample data with respect to time.
