several audio distortion

Post by railfan-eric »

I have a mp3 that played fine for years and now it is all distorted on Media Monkey. I double checked the MP3Gain and it's still fine. the song plays fine in Audacity and WMP but is totally unusable on Media Monkey even at a low volume. I spent the last 20 mins trying to figure out why its' doing this. I played this song and album/playlist many times before in Media Monkey and it was fine.

My suggestion was not effective.

Disable Play > Level playback volume and try to play the file again. Does it still have the problem?

That indicates that the Track/Album Volume is set to a bad value causing distortion on leveled playback. You may want to analyze again (make sure you disable the option to only do so for unknown levels).
