    converting lossy to lossy with replaygain album gain apply

    Hi, let me explain this. I have a bunch of loudly mastered MP3 320 kbps files so I want to volume normalise them. I don't mind the slight deterioration in music quality from lossy to lossy as long as the volumes are listenable. I opt for album gain(apply), so this is how I am doing it:

    1. Add Replaygain album info to MP3 file. Close Music Converter.

    2. Open Music Converter, source Replaygain album-info added files. Set To Lame MP3 320 kbs and DSP Replaygain (apply; album gain).

    3. Done.


    Is this about right? Or should I convert the original loud MP3 to a WAV file first and then do the other steps?


    I know lossy to lossy will deteriorate sound. I also know I can use the volume normalise DSP but that only has track gain option. I want album gain only. Please tell if the steps are okay or I should convert to WAV first.

    No need to convert to wave, ReplayGain Apply is all you need on the 2nd step.
