haylebob Posted April 25, 2005 Report Share Posted April 25, 2005 ...sometimes quiet and sometimes loudHello Forum, since long time i have the problem that some of my MP3's that i copied to MiniDisc(for my Car-Deck) with Sonic Stage are louder than others. I thought i depends on the MP3-Compression but i have MP3's with 256, some with 196 and they are at the same loudness-level. But on the other hand some MP3's with 196 are very loud and powerful in sound and bass. Is there anybody who can explain?? Is there a software available to raise the loudness-level? thanx in advancehaylebob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
haylebob Posted April 26, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 26, 2005 Hi again, i found a solution! After sending this posting i remember Steinbergs "WAVELAB" which is able to raise the Loudness of MP3-Files(and Wave-Files) by using "Loudness-Maximizer"I do this last evening and it works!! Now my Songs are as loud as i want them I did not expectet that i have to work on MP3-Files which i have officially purchased...thanx 4 your patience see u btw: greate forum!!haylebob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A440 Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 By the way, bitrate (196, 256) has nothing to do with loudness. Bitrate is the quality of the compression. The loudness depends on the original material. If you have a high-bitrate version of a quiet recording, it will still be quiet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AcTs Posted April 27, 2005 Report Share Posted April 27, 2005 So does wavelab work like mp3gain? by raising the volume? I want to try wavelab.. but 20 mb for a program that raises seems kinda big? Does anyone know if noth do the exact same thing? or is wavelab better at raising the volume on mp3s? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
