well not really what i was saying there. but it would sound softer.
the songs i have done the volume leveling in mediamonkey to all were made level to the percent
number of the level option setting in monkey's options panel. which is 98 or 95% on my system.
however the songs were not made to the same level as all the other songs on the system.
the volume was only gauged on the volume of that one song. so when played back with the songs
in the computer playlist they all were different levels. in order to get them the same level that takes
the use of an dps plugin which is what the radio stations do. that is why you can hear the songs
all at the same volume they are all either boosted or muted to what is set in the plugins options.
however if you want you can do that same thing by use of the wav editor like i said above. only it is
one song at a time, you conver them to wav's then you open them in the editor and use its feature to
adjust volume, you then adjust it by adding percentage numbers in the panel and trying a couple
different ones to make sure you get the spikes of the song to the largest ones you can with out touching
them to the other channel or the outside of the edit window.
that is the best way to do it you can then make all the songs the same volume and that will also give you
the best audio visual effects when you play the song. how ever it is that long time thing, some / most editors
have a batch file edit option where you can get all the songs you want to edit selected and then set up your numbers and stuff you want to change, now this of course only works well with the songs all from the same
preformer, because the batch edit's only let you adjust the stuff once then use it on all the songs.
still there is also in most the editors to do a batch normalization of the songs. this is allowing the editor
to pick what is boosted and muted in the song files and will do it for all the songs.
which makes it fast on large librarys only you have to convert them to wav files.
there are some mp3 editors that say they can normalize mp3s with out converting to wav. wheather or not they can do other formats i don't know.
i had mentioned jetaudio that one in there will normalize all the songs to what ever level number you pick
it does this for burning to cdroms i don't know if you can do it to save to or converting a file because i never tried it. but that does do what you want, it makes the soft low whisper voice love songs just as loud as "A hard days night " so you can hear them.
but that brings me back to the dsp plugin's they do that with out doing anything to the song files they use the computer to normalize them before they are sent to the speakers. i have got errors when i used them before with mm 3. but now that mm 3.0.3 is out they have not caused any errors when i use them, i have the very old wide & dynamic plug in for winamp its styled in old knobs and needle meters and very easy to understand once you know to think of the song entering from the left and exiting from the right.
why do i use that plugin if i edit all the songs? simple my sister added lots of songs to help get them in and she got lazy and did not edit any, and i don't feel like redoing all those songs even though they don't really sound good.
their in there now and i'm getting lazy now too.
of course i got 4 computers here and she wants music on all of them, so redoing them is not an option i want to do.
