Want To Normalize All My Mp3

[GUEST]

INSTALLED POWER PACK AND I WANT TO NORMALIZE ALL MY MP3.
HOW CAN I DO THIS ?
OR IS IT POSSIBLE?

1. WANT TO GET SAME HIGH QUALITY
2. ALL TRACKS SAME VOLUME LEVEL

I HAVE SEEN 3 TYPES OF NORMALIZATION AND DON'T KNOW WHICH ONE TO USE AND HOW TO SET SETTINGS.
THKS MUCH

this is a cut and paste from the help file that comes with dmc.


In layman's terms volume normalize will make the sound level of any quieter recordings louder, so when played with other recordings they all sound the same loudness.
A desired volume (in percentage of maximum) is set. Simple Normalization will scan through the audio file, find the maximum value (it might be 60%) then it works out how much it has to increase the volume to get it to the desired value.
Simple Normalization generally works well, however there are a few situations which can throw it - if you have a track that is only at 50% of max, except for a few bits at the beginning (a pop from a record) that is 100%, then simple normalize will leave the audio level untouched.


Adaptive Normalization can be used to over come the problem of short loud sections, where the rest of the track is quiet (perhaps a piece of classical music, that is quiet until the drums at the end). Adaptive Normalization is like having a friend constantly changing the volume control of your stereo, turning it up and down as required. The Window size is the length of track that is scanned ahead to work out the volume level, a smaller window will result in more volume twiddling.

NB Volume Normalize only makes tracks louder - it will not make tracks quieter.
