This example is one reason why there are 'mastering houses'. It's
their job to make it sound right. :-)

I used to say that PCs turned every man into a computer operations manager,

Now it seems that personal music players have turned every man into a
mastering engineer.


Well... you recommended one !!

It's a sure-fire fact that the only way this can be done with any accuracy
(as well as dignity) is to do it by ear. Normalization is a joke unless every
wavefile has undergone surgery or has otherwise already been somewhat
mastered... IE ripped files from finished CDs. The ear is still the best tool
for this one.
