Hi Kevin

Just installed version 1_2_5 of mp3gain [had it on this laptop already] and got 
a message that this programme may not have installed correctly with a button to 
click for reinstalling using recommended settings. I cancelled out of that, 
hoping it actually has installed ok.

I'm not quite ready with the folder I wish to burn, so not ready to use the 
programme just yet, but if I get stuck, can I come back for some help?

Thanks -

Andy

  Hi Andy.

  I would suggest MP3GAIN as your best option.  It's free and easy to use and 
can be used to set all files to the same average volume.  This is different to 
normalisation which  sets all files so that their maximum peak volume are all 
at the same volume.  Normalisation can therefore still leave files at different 
volumes as perceived by the ear.  Even the best tools like MP3GAIN can make 
mistakes occasionally though so I'd set the volumes and then have a listen 
before you burn and change any individual files to your ear.

    Hi all -

    I'm putting together a folder of mp3 files that will get burned to disk. As 
some are louder than others, I'd like to standardise/normalise the volume level 
for all files. Is there a free tool that will do this for me?

    Thanks -

    Andy
