![]() Looking at the wave is Ok but do not rely on that to have your songs sounding at the level of pro recordings. Normalizing is not a process that is truly recomended in the mastering process, perhaps after the mastering has been done and if the material is going to be released in another medium other than CDs. The noise level of the signal has also been raised, so the signal to noise ratio has not improved one little bit.Īnd actually, it doesn't sound the same - it sounds worse! The recording sounds exactly the same as it did before, it just occupies a higher range of levels. it doesn't make the recording sound any better. Your normalized recording may peak at 0 dBFS, and it may look better on the meters, but it is actually noisier than it was before. Normalizing works by multiplying the value of each sample by a set amount. With patient, training and practice you can get to master your songs and get them to sound "almost" at the level of pro recordings. They were mastered properly at excelent mastering facilities. No sweat, use the pre set "high definition cd master" and set the threshold to 0.0 The volume level was different only on WMP why? because it has a volume fader!!!! you can set it so music can be heard nicely or you can set it to blast your ears. The master fader will dictate the volume level of the bounce. It can be very high or low, depending on how you want it. If you have powered speaker monitors they have to be conected to the monitor out, the volume of what you hear will be controled by the monitor volume on your DIGI hardware. Commercial recordings are professionally mastered to ensure that the volume is as loud as the media (Record, CD, MP3, etc) can handle without distoring. Again, you should mix your song such that the level seen on the master fader is as high as possible with out going red, and consider the master volume fader as the "volume to tape" control. But the problem is the final mix is still lower than commercial recordings because." "Another thread talk about adjusting the reference volume on the headphone vs. Consider the master volume fader as the "volume to tape" (or in this case, MP3) control. You should use the volume control on your Mbox, 003, or whatever the speakers are plugged into to control the actual volume that you listen to. Make sure you meters are set to "Post-Fader". If your master output fader is not showing very high signal then your bounce will not be loud. the L2 & 元 is a comp/limiter that can be set to limit the signal on the master fader such that the signal get as high as possible on the meter without going red. "Some threads have talked about using L2 or 元 Maximizer, but essentially I cannot see much difference, maybe I need to know how to set it, any thoughts?" What are you using to monitor the sound level when you mix verses when you listen to the bounced mp3? This difference might be what is causing your problem. When I export to MP3 then playback on WMP it's like 1/4 of the volume is dropped." I have this very problem but still have some questions to ask. "Firstly I had been reading on threads about bounce volume being lower than what I hear during my mixing stage. ![]() Any help would be appreciated.ĭigi 002, JBL 4326P adjustable volume monitor, PT 7.3 LE, Pentium Core 2 Duo Or if I leave it, then the listener will always need to crank up the volume. So my question is how do I get my bounced MP3 export to be normalizing at close to 100% by itself? What setting do I need to do? This will alleviate my extra step today to put it back into Adobe Audition. I'd always have to normalize it back to 100%-120% say. I have used the MP3 exported and put it into Adobe Audition and look at the waves and almost all the time, the normalization is much too low - 75%. But the problem is the final mix is still lower than commercial recordings because.
