Volume Levelling Audio Tracks - PhilSkill - 11-01-2012 04:04pm
Anyone got any neat tricks on how to level the volume of your Audio MP3/WMA's? or just raise or lower recorded volume such that they play at a different level?
Happy to re-rip some albums from CD if need be.
It went from a quiet album to a loud album and got quite a shock!!!

I know what you mean PhilSkill. Haven't got my car yet, but I assume you mean from the internal hard disc? I think on the iPod you can level it out.

Yes on the USB from disk/stick. Having searched, MP3Gain seems like a free option so will have a play with that, not sure if it does WMA.

I think there is an option in windows media player to scan all of your files and apply volume levelling to them. Might be worth a try.

Looks like Goldwave is your best bet.

I haven't tried it myself, but I was thinking of doing something similar and put a bunch of wav files on a usb stick or iPod.

ITunes has a feature to change the volume on individual tracks if you right click on them. I'm guessing that this saves changes to the file as it does when you edit the length of a track.

thanks for ideas, MP3Gain only does .mp3 files not WMA, have downloaded Goldwave although havent worked out what to do yet. I guess Iphone will add a tag to the track which it uses on playback, but dont know if RRE usb interface uses tagged volume levelling.

I have an old iPod permanently plugged-in. iPods have a 'sound check' option which does exactly what you want (without having to re-rip/reprocess any files).

No need to use files at any compression - hard drive storage is cheap as chips. Don't use MP3 - what you chuck away ripping to MP3 you can never get back. When ripping never rip to anything less than uncompressed .WAV or .AIFF files (the Apple equivalent) - that's the format used in professional studios.

WAV files straight from the CD are still recorded at different volumes, what's a good tool to volume level a WAV then?
