FLAC to Apple Lossless Vole

[ertony]

I have a rather large collection of FLAC files that I an converting to Apple Lossless. I have found all of these files play back much quieter in the car (off my phone via bluetooth) and even on my computer through ITunes compared to normal mp3 files that have been ripped off CD’s or downloaded from iTunes. I have to turn the volume up in my car about 20% for the Apple Lossless files to be at the samw volume as a previously played mp3 during listening sessions. Is this normal? What is the remedy to this…

Re: FLAC to Apple Lossless Vole

did you add replaygain tags or itunes volume adj tags to the apple lossless files when you converted from flac. It may be that the flac files already had ReplayGain tags, and in the conversion they were added to the Apple Lossless files.
