Default How to equalize volume on burned CD tracks?

I get most of my music off Kazaa Lite K++, and burn using Recordnow. Some of the songs DL and end up loud, others quiet. Is there a program or way to equalize all the volumes so I don't have to keep turning up and down the volume in my car? Thanks.

Try MP3Gain, it's freeware.

Thanks, I just DL'd MP3BR, and it works great, and it's free. Only trouble is you can't do it to songs that are already on CD's.

I had this prob too...

You can reencode the mp3 file using "CDex", it is freeware.

It is by far the most usable and configurable mp3 program I have come across...

I recently ripped about 500 CD's using Cdex onto my server, and only a few had issues...

When I get MP3's from friends, I usually re-encode them to my specs...

Here is a URL: http://cdexos.sourceforge.net/

The only thing to remember is the bitrate, you can always re-encode to a lower rate, but never to a higher...

Poor, poor Windozers. With Adaptec Jam, you just click a button, and all of the tracks will burn normalized.

Ahhh...

With easy "one-click" solutions come many unseen options.

Learn the software, see the light.

Just like learning the options to building the motor, the more you learn about burning or ripping the music the more control you will have.

With more control comes better sound.

MP3BR is not free though. It won't function after the trial period is over. Unless you found a crack?
