Song 1: At full volume, Atomix reports -16.2db
Song 2: At full volume, Atomix reports -20.5db
Playing song 1 - wanting to mix into song 2?? HOW???
Unfortunately because I can't boost the volume in song 2 to match the -16.2db in song 1, it kinda puts me in a problem zone... The song I am mixing into will not sound as good because the previous song over-powers it.
Any suggestions?
I heard that normalizing all my mp3 files could help me with this?
But I am new to the whole "normalization" thing, and so I have no idea what 80% or 100% means, so I would have no idea what I would need to do to either of the above files to make them match.
Are there any good tools out there for normalizing mp3's? Do I have to convert them to WAV first? Or maybe they are working on a volume booster or auto normalizer in the next version of atomix?? :)

Some temporary fixes
- When you start mixing, set first song volume level to 33% - 50% of full level.. now when there's song with low volume level, you have now room to boost it playing at 100%
- Use a external mixer and use it's gain adjustment for boosting the song.
- Suggest a gain pot to be added to next atomixmp3 version for over boosting the song. (This will cause peaks to clip if peaks are already "normalized".. There will be need for compression for clipping then, propably too complicated to be added very soon)
I personally suggest to use the first suggestion of starting mixing with half levels in atomix!
Using two soundcards & external mixer has some bug that makes other cards output sound 22khz or 8bit or something.. I dunno if it's just my card (got 2x SB64PCI other being chipset 1370 and other 1371)..

Well what I do is set the master volume at say -23db
and then most songs i can manually match the volumes to that since its pretty soft.
-16.2db from my experience is pretty loud for a track so chances are you won't find many other mp3s that loud.

I normally set my volume to around -23db and use a mixer to boost the output. I also find this helps with reducing the heavy Boom sound when mixing tracks, you know when you crossfade? Obviously if you don't have a mixer or an externak amp this isn't going to help.
I agree with the idea of Atomix having a gain function to boost output more than it does, occasionally you get a really soft track -35db and its a real mission to try and boost the MP3 by editing converting etc, a pain in the neck actually!

There is a shareware program called MP3Gain that will scan your MP3 files and adjust the volume to be the same for all.
