MP3: how do you make all songs play at same volume?

[mbt]

yung ibang songs ko kasi ang hina ng volume, yung iba naman ang lakas, so i have to adjust the volume for each song (winamp) when they play... is there a way to increase the volume of the mp3 file itself para lahat ng songs ko at the same volume na?

[artpogi]

mbt,

AFAIK, when ripping audio CD's into MP3's, make sure that your encoder or software that you use in converting audio CD's into MP3's is set to "CONSTANT BIT RATE" (CBR) not "VARIABLE BIT RATE" (VBR).

Sometimes when encoding your MP3's using VBR will give you exactly that, inconsistent volume for every track.


HTH

agree ako kay artpogi... gawin mo 192kbps para near cd quality na.

tapos pag gagawa ka ng audio cd, click mo normalize para pare-pareho volume ng lahat ng tracks mo.

[mbt]

yeah, i always rip at 192 kbps, CBR...

but may ibang songs kasi na mahina talaga, may iba naman na malakas talaga at the same winamp volume setting...

meron bang normalization in the player, like i-normalize niya volume ng whole playlist or something?

[ssaloon]

sa winamp ata wala eh... sa nero meron yun

One word:

NORMALIZE!

CBR and VBR affect quality. They have nothing to do with volume.

^^thanks!, di ba nagkakaproblema yung mga files? ex. file names, corruption..

[roninblade]

nice tool. downloading to test.

agree with master yoda's old comment, though
bitrate is about quality not volume.
may the force be with you.

Nope. No problems. The process is completely reversible too.

The nice thing about this program is that it can do analysis for entire albums as well. Good for stuff like Pink Floyd albums or musicals where the loud songs are supposed to stay loud and the quiet ones are supposed to stay quiet.

if my memory serves me right, may option din yata ang itunes na "play all songs at same volume"

[WeaponX]

Ngayon ko lang uli naalala yung kailangang gawin ko sa MP3s ko. Download ko na rin yung tool.

Thanks sa lahat.

[oldblue]

sa itunes pwede mo i-select all lahat ng collection mo and adjust the volume permanently.

[MXFX]

i agree with normalizing them during conversion.

sa mga itunes user (oldblue, etc.) yun bang volume adjustment pareho ng normalizing? dami ko na din kasi kailangan adjust, alam ko increase/decrease lang gagawin pag adjust volume. may nakapagtry na ba? wala akong makitang sagot ngayong nagse search ako.

your question will be solve easily sa nero...ndi lang volume ang pwede i adjust pati quality ng sound...you don't need to buy a high end stereo set to have a good quality sound or even burn your cd to higher bitrate to have a good quality sound...higher bitrate higher memory...mp3 can't be edit so yong mp3 rip mo back to normal audio format then highlight mo lang ang song na gusto mo iadjust then tick properties...all adjustment are there..lack of treble/bass adjust it in the equalizer...you don't need surround speaker to hear a surround sound from your 2ch speaker(normal stereo) there is an option also for echo(surround)...delay etc...for volume adjustment default volume is all set sa 100 so you can adjust it from 100-200...be aware to your adjustment baka naman mapasobra...a trial and error sa adjustment is necessary especially for firts timer....then from normal audio format rip mo ulit back to mp3 format...
