Volume normalization of many CD's MP3 at once?

[Ayaa]

I tried normalize about 1500 of my MP3 files with MediaMonkey 5 free edition. Result is not good.

Any suggestion for software for Windows 10/11 or Ubuntu? Thanks.

Try Audacity https://www.audacityteam.org/ or Mp3 Gain https://mp3gain.en.softonic.com/

Foobar2000 is what you want. It works really well. It can be run as a portable program if you don't want to install it.

Workflow:

Copy all your files into another folder as Foobar writes the replay gain info to them (I'm not so sure whether this is necessary; whether it actually affects the original file or just sets a Replay Gain flag).

Start Foobar2000 exe

File Open

Select all files to be balanced>Open. A playlist will be created.

Select all files in the playlist

Right click> Replay gain>Scan per-file track gain

Click Update file Tags

Right click Replay Gain>Apply Gain to File Content

Done.

It will also level MP4s. Great for music videos!

Is there some software, that shows visually a waves of my files, for quicks overview before - after (normalize)?

finally I used Audition, result is very good. In about an hour I normalized all ~1500 tracks, with visual control.

Thanks to all for help.
