Once I've recorded something I always do a "normalise" to try to make the volume sound as normal as possible. Recently I have recorded something where the volume is over all far too high. Would a normalise actually fix this, or is there a way I can decrease the volume say by 5-10%. My aim is to make all recordings the same level as, mp3 music or sound. Any help would be appreciated.
