I opened MM5 this morning and see the activity indicator spinning while at the bottom of the screen a line of text says: "Analyzing volume 185_186_187_etc. of 29,109." I do want volume leveling, but I expected analysis to take place only once when I first acquire and save each file. What h...

I can no longer find how to run this report ... any help?

I have MM5 working great on Windows 10 so am ready/eager to uninstall MM4. May I simply run the Windows uninstaller or is there a smarter method? Any potential problems or easy mistakes I should be aware of? Thanks in advance for any help and reassurance.

Good decision; thank you.

Welcome! Enjoy MM and speak up if you need an assist.

Welcome aboard, new users!

I'm pretty criticaI about speakers, but I just upgraded to a pair of AudioEngine HD-3s and am very pleased. Really good desktop sound if you can swing $350. Self-powered, compact, good looking (the speakers), and can be hooked up in various ways: cable, USB, and wireless via Blue Tooth. I can take '...

Update: I hooked up new, more sophisticated, speakers today and believe they sound best with no equalization. I guess it makes sense that better speakers need less correction. (AudioEngine HD-3s)

The short answer is "vocals." My (gentle) curve roughly matches the frequency of the human voice. The longer answer is --predominantly country/folk/bluegrass. I haven't had the energy to try different preset profiles for my rock or cajun collections, etc., so I don't have a suggested profi...

I agree with Lowlander.

This slight emphasis on the midrange ...

I also would like a way to make the view layout universal.

MM makes collecting, organizing, and playing so convenient that my collection also has grown into many thousands. The basic mission is to have convenient access to music that I enjoy, so I value playlists that make it easy to cue-up favorites -- thank you for all this, Media Monkey. I agree that hav...

...wondered where you were. It's good to have you back.

Stereophile magazine gave a good review to the Dragonfire Acoustics Mini Dragon DFA 2.1 desktop speakers. Unfortunately they cost $10,000, about $9,500 more than my computer... which came with speakers.

Interesting discussion. I don't use the rating system, but I do like to have convenient access to songs that strike me as so good that I expect to play them often. When I add songs to the database I put the juiciest ones on "hits" playlists -- Folk Hits, Country Hits, Great Female Voices, ...
