[linux-audio-user] RMS and peak levels: meters

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



The definition of 'normalization' in the description of the software 
linked below is, IMHO, too vague. And normalization is not enough for 
your purpose.

To my understanding, normalization means finding the maxpeak level of 
the entire track and scale the signal to use the highest possible level 
without having distortion (when there's the maximum peak).

I suggest that you *just need to trust your ears*, listening to the 
first track and the adjusting the volume of the second according to your 
perception. A compressor/limiter would help with the peaks.

Try this instead:

or just apply a compressor before the output of your audio software of 
choice.
