You know how some CDs are "louder" than others? Usually older CDs are thinner-sounding and just not as LOUD. Is there any way to correct that when burning a CD? Can you make all the songs record at the same volume? I hate listening to a compilation CD and having to adjust the volume from song to song. Anyone know if there is a way around this? I use Adaptec 4.0, I think. Thanks!
I think you would have to use an audio mastering type program... something like Sound Forge XP... most burning software doesn't give you the ability to edit volume and trim sound... good luck
Thanks HEAD......I was just wondering if there was an easy way with the stuff I already had. It's a little annoying, but it doesn't bother me that bad, I guess.
I think what you're looking to do is normalize the output. There are various tools/utilities out there that allow you to do this. I could've sworn WinAMP used to do this, but I'm not certain (I haven't used it in a year or two). Go to download.com and do a search on the words "normalize" and "mp3". See what you come up with...
good info doc, but I don't think you can BURN from WinAmp!? but download.com is da bomb for downloads!
HEAD, I'm not sure if you can burn or not, but I could've sworn you used to be able to get a bunch of MP3's, put them in a folder, then ask the tool to normalize all the mp3's in that folder. After that you just use whatever burner software you want to burn it. What I don't remember is if it was WinAMP that did that... that batch normalization was an awesome feature (whatever tool I used to do it... lol).
anyone got any tips for burning in winXP? the windows media integrated burner sucks.. it burns, but then crashes on the "closing cd" part.. the software i had isnt compatible, and i downloaded nero, but thats giving me some kind of scsi error
i use "musicmatch jukebox plus" to burn mp3's... i've used tons of different software, but IMO this is the best... just drag and drop wav files into the GUI and the software converts to MP3, than burns onto CDs EDIT: just drag and drop MP3s into the GUI and the software converts to *.wav, than burns onto CDs that's the important part, and i messed it up! sorry.
Burning in XP - check with your hardware/software manufacturer and see if they've updated their drivers, etc for XP I like my adaptec software, there's no conversion of files, just drag and drop MP3's and presto, music! I've never burned with MusicMatch, although I use them exclusively for ripping CD's to MP3's.
