There also is a nice GUI for it called "WinLoud" by Muxson.
#Mp4 sound normalizer software
One software solution which does all this in 1 step is "LoudNorm" which is part of current FFmpeg versions. To avoid clipping you need to determine the peaks of your source first, and today you use the "True Peak" value instead of the "Sample Peak" value. Peak Normalizing has gotten out of fashion during the last years, everybody uses Loudness Normalizing today. So before doing any of this you need to decide for yourself what you want to achieve. Or you can apply compression or limiting before Loudness Normalizing. To avoid clipping in Loudness Normalizing you can either reduce the gain so no clipping will occur (but then you will not get an even perceived loudness). Digital clipping is EVIL, it has to be avoided by any means. For Loudness Normalizing this means that clipping is possible. Neither Peak Normalizing nor Loudness Normalizing alter the dynamic range of the source, no compression or limiting is applied. (The unofficial ReplayGain2 method uses the new analyzing method, but with a higher target level than EBU R128). The original ReplayGain method to measure the loudness is obsolete today, it has been superseded by the BS1770 or EBU R128 method. It uses an algorithm to determine the percieved loudness of an audio clip (the peak values do not correlate to the percieved loudness). ReplayGain normalizing falls under the category "Loudness normalzing". The laws of physics say that it is absolutely impossible for any audio clip that the peak level is lower than the average (RMS = Root Mean Square) level. Your post sounds like you are confusing PEAK normalizing with LOUDNESS normalizing. Is this desirable? Thanks for any thoughts or insights? Then as a final check I went through Sound Normalizer 7.99.8 and unexpectedly saw that the peak audio levels: 85.4db L & R 85.7db were actual a couple of db lower more or less than the average 87.4 db registered L&R level equal weighting. exe to remove 6db of clipping at Mp3Gain GUI default 89db. I suppose it depends on the normalizing method, but I used some software method today for the hell of it,(Fairstars Audio Converter)which has the option of normalizing up to 100%(assume this method is peak normalization method which many thrown upon?) and then I checked it with Mp3Gain(using aacGain renamed to its. Doing this I always see peak levels higher than average levels and within limits- no clipping.
#Mp4 sound normalizer mp4
I'm very curious to know that after normalizing a 5.1 ac-3 track to mp4 aac, should the peak audio level be always lower than the average level(after removing any clipping and having a target of 89db? I tend not to normalize during a video encoding as I see distortions often, but rather extract the audio mp3 or 2.0 or 5.1 aac, and then use aacGain later to up the gain using the replay gain method.
