Analyzing and normalizing volume

[dtsig]

Has anyone done this with a *sizable* (140K track) library? Did it work? Are the volumes really normalized? Would you do it again?. I am analyzing right now and it will take days. Before modifying the tracks i just wanted to hear how it went for others.

Thanks

Hi,
I never Normalize Volume leveling only Analyze. It is non invasive method for Audio Data, so you can always remove in case of any issue. Aprox 70% of my library 200k is analyzed and played leveled. That is enough for me.

Also I can always normalize for devices I want and in level I want, keeping originals intact.

Thanks Peke ... maybe I will just leave it at analyze .. if I can get it to complete

Hi,
I created Auto-Playlist of random 5k that do not have volume analyze and do this in batches. Each Refresh gives me new set of tracks.

Thanks

Peke ... how do you create a auto-playlist with random x# tracks and not level analyzed?

Thanks ... dsig

Criteria Leveling is unknown (under Others) and Limit to x files.

I don't have 'Others' in my dropdown

When selecting a new Criteria to Add to an AutoPlaylist the bottom of the Criteria list has Others > Leveling (in MMW5.1).

did you look at the image i posted? It does not show Other anywhere ... or else I am blind

i finally got it ... you have to ADD to the criteria ... not just fill it in
