CD Adio Track volume adjusting program needed.

[whoeverxxx]

Monty Burns, should I normalize to the maximum or use the defualt RMS 20% in Nero? Also should I just normalize the 2 tracks that I need to bring up to the same volume level of the other 16 tracks on the CD or should I normalize all 18 tracks?


DarkSoul, MP3Gain looks like it might be a good option for MP3 files, thanks I'll give it a try next time I do this for MP3's but it doesn't seem to work with CDA audio tracks from a store boughten CD, says Warning-Read-only file will not be able to be modified: track 18.CDA Add file to the list anyway? When I do it seems I can't modify it.

Yeah, mp3gain is only useful for mp3s.

Personally, I prefer the Maximum "Filter" within Nero and set it to 89....., normalize all tracks you want to have on one audio cd.

That does seem to help some but the 2 tracks are still at a lower volume level than the rest. Hopefully Nero 7 has a way to manually adjust that option when it comes out this month. Thanks for the info.....

Only one answer from approx 7 packages i've tried

Syntrillium's COOL EDIT PRO

I think you can do it auto BUT I do it manually in the edit wave screen using the Effects : amplitude : amplify - menu
Purchase and ENJOY

Hi
Does it Auto

Group Waveform Normalize...
Group Waveform Normalize allows you to normalize the volume of multiple open waveforms using a three-screen batch process. (When you normalize a waveform, the loudest part of the waveform is set to a specified amplitude, thereby raising or lowering all other parts of the same waveform by the same amount.) If the volume is raised as part of the normalization process, Cool Edit Pro can apply limiting to prevent clipping.

If you’re getting ready to master an audio CD, using Group Waveform Normalize is a great way to make sure that all tracks on the CD have a consistent volume.

1. Choose Files Tab

2. Analyze Loudness Tab

3. Normalize Tab

Cool Edit Pro doesn't exist anymore, it's been bought by Adobe and renamed to Adobe Audition:

It's a very good program, but it's quite advanced if you just need it for normalizing tracks. Try Audacity, which is much smaller and free:

MP3Gain is a good choice if you need a tool only for normalizing:
