I got tired of always changing the volume for every track that plays on my iPod, so I decided to check out normalizing the songs that get uploaded to it.

I could swear on a pile of holy books that there used to be an option to Normalize songs before transfering them to the iPod. Is it me, or is the feature gone or hidden? I just can't find it anymore. The Wiki seems to indicate that this can be done...

Thanks.

Michel.

It's never been there AFAIK:

Thanks,

I guess I was wrong... But I sure wish it was there.

We send replay gain (volume normalizing) information to the iPod database. Make sure all your audio files have been analyzed and that Sound Check is turned on on your iPod and the volume should be normalized.

That's where I had seen it before! (Another duh! moment... :-)).

I'm so used to having MC do things so much better than Apple, I never thought of looking on the iPod again...

Thanks SwellGuy!

Hey Swell Guy, can you clarify something?  Does MC write the track replay gain values or the album gain values to the Soundcheck field on the ipod db?  This is confusing since I've read elsewhere that MC calculates the replay gain values for each track, then does the album gain values on the fly based on the replay gain values.  I'm wanting to figure out how I can get album gain settings onto my ipod, enable Soundcheck, and have it read the album gain values.  thx
