Volume levelling for CD burning
« on: August 13, 2018, 12:51:06 pm »

I'm putting together some CDs to go in a friends jukebox for a party. I've noticed significantly different volumes between tracks. I know I can analyze the volume for adjustment during playback in MC, but is there anything simple I can do to equalise the volume on tracks being burnt to an audio CD.

Cheers

Go to Tools>Options>Burning and check the box for crossfade and DSP. Then click the ...DSP Settings link and chose volume levelling in the dsp studio pop up menu. One thing to remember if you select tracks and just send them to the burner is that it will organise the list by album name so you might want to shuffle it before burning.

Very true ~OHM~

I forgot to mention that it is probably best to ensure that the files you are using have been audio analysed.

Thanks guys, they were already in playlists, but I wasn't sure about the DSP thing working for burn as well as playback. The options look clear enough, I'll give it a go tomorrow when my other problem is resolved; I've run out of disks ;-)

PS. Slight moment of panic as the Analyze Audio option was greyed out when I selected the tracks in the various playlists. Thought I'd have to go back to the actual files which are scattered across multiple albums etc. But no, I was trying to run Analyze Audio from a network client. Quick switch over to the server, and it all ran smoothly. Phew
