How to normalise my music collection tonally?
wrote in message
Thanks for the sensible replies, although I'm still a little
lost to
be honest. I haven't much experience of many audio editors,
but the
ones I have seen so far haven't been much use for what I
want.
What you need is first of all to compress and limit the crap out of
everything so that all the music turns into a nice square wave. This
eliminates any level differences between tracks. Then you can employ a
tool like Har-Bal which will equalize everything to follow the exact same
curve.
If you do this properly, you get absolutely uniform garbage, like music
that has been extruded from a tube. Every track will sound the same,
so you won't be able to tell the difference between Metallica and
Cavallera Rusticana. It will all sound the same.
But, why even bother listening to music if you're going to do that?
Just listen to pink noise tracks! That way, you won't be bothered by
any track-to-track variations.
