Default Not normalising, but....

more from the 'Tom school' of uk.rec.audio-ism:

Good eve.

I am a relative newbie, and although I can generally do everything I
want, I was wondering if there was a way to pump a sound byte up to
its maximum volume...


...what i mean is, if, for example, I have a voice soundbyte, where
some instances of the byte aren't very loud, but others are very loud,
I would like to pump up the quiet bits without pumping up the loud
bits and causing them to fuzz and sound pap (i'm sure there's a tech
term, wen it goes over that line in CEP2 basically!)

Anyway, if there is such a method I'd welcome it, perhaps i've missed
something glaringly obvious!!?

Thanks in advance,

T.



If you're playing the files on a PC, the FooBar2000 media player lets you
do exactly what you asked in real time. Go to the DSP menu in preferences
and play with the dynamics compressor.
