Normalization
When you listen to mp3 audio music from a playlist you may notice how some songs are more quiet than others. The encoder may have set the input gain too low. On the other hand, some audio files are extremely loud. This is the result of an input gain too high. The same song from two different sources may have entirely different loudness levels. Normalization is the process of analyzing music files and adjusting the gain so that all play at relatively the same loudness. Normalization works great on files with too low of a gain. However, files with excessive gain may be distorted. Distortion occurs if the encoder set the input gain too high past the point of distortion. Such distorted mp3 audio files should be deleted as there is no remedy to recover the audio quality. Distortion blows speakers, not volume!
MP3Gain
MP3Gain is a program that will nalyzes and adjusts mp3 files so that they have the same volume.
MP3Gain is a small software that automatically adjusts your mp3s so that they all have the same volume. What makes it different from the other normalization software is that it does not just do peak normalization (the process of making all tracks equally loud). Instead, it scans your music files and perform a statistical analysis to determine how loud the file actually sounds to the human ear. Best of all, the changes in the volume does not alter the quality of your mp3, that means you can listen to all your high-quality music at the volume suitable for your ear.
MP3 Tag Editor
MP3 audio files have header information that is readable by MP3 players. This header information includes Name of Song and Artist along with other details and meta data.
Since people create their own mp3 files and trade them on the net, these tags often contain erroneous data. This is because some people don't care, and other people are stupid. Sometimes the tag metadata is simply absent.
mp3tag
Mp3tag is a powerful and easy-to-use tool to edit metadata of audio files.
This is really good software and completely free. The author accepts donations.
