How to normalise my music collection tonally?

What are you going to do with certain recordings such as those made to
sound like a telephone connection, where the sound simply isn't there

I don't listen to music that old.
Effects like that are commonly used in modern recordings. And you
think you'll recognize when all your recordings have the exact same EQ
profile?
Further, I'll bet a zillion dollars you wouldn't be able to discern
when the goal had been reached.
You got a zillion then?
Um...sure. Just like you're proposing a perfectly plausible, logical,
worthwhile goal.
And if you were to hear a rock track and then a symphonic track that
were tweaked in exactly the way you specify, no doubt the mere
presence of different instuments recorded would give you cause to
fidget. Oooh...I can't abide those tympanies....and those french
horns...can't we do something about that? Egads, it just
sounds...."different" than that Elvis track....
It's not get difficult to get a sense of how dull/bright/heavy/light
a track is within seconds of playing a suitable section.
Of course. And exactly what kind of gear will you be listening through
and what's your listening environment going to be? Are you going to be
strapped in to a special seat custom-molded to your body to make sure
you're situated in exactly the same place every time so you get the
exact same frequency emphasis? Are you going to have your hearing
checked to make sure you compensate for whatever frequency
deficiencies you suffer from?
And be sure you're running the extra super-duper shiny Monster Cables,
you know, 'cuz only the best will do.
And don't forget to check the humidity levels, barometric pressure,
sunspot activity level and feng shui of the room to make sure
everything is *just* so.
In fact, just to be thorough, have a witch doctor give the place a
once-over to check 'fo 'dem eebul spiritz.
And I'm not
proposing to vary the settings along the track, just one tweak per
recording.
Oh that's right, you not only want something that nobody else wants,
though you feel you know a way to do it, you've stated it's too much
work and want someone else to do the work and give it to you for free,
with one click simplicity.
Thanks, I'd forgotten how lovely it was to engage with the hostility
of the newsgroups.
Hmm, might there be a reason you keep getting a similar response from
various folks... Gee, I wonder if it could have anything to do with
the ludicrous and troll-like nature of your post.
