Try it out using FlexiMusic Wave Editor, an audio editing and converting
software. Play the audio files in this software, from the menu; select
"volume" command where in either choose simple Compress/ Expand or Dynamic
Compress/ Expand option to equalize the volume throughout the whole audio
file. It is best to opt Simple Compress/ Expand option. The usage of Simple
Compress/ Expand option is that, it will choose the optimum (maximum) level
of volume of the audio file and this will be applied for the whole audio
file. While using Dynamic Compress/ Expand option, the volume will be
changed randomly. This option will increase the volume where it is low and
decrease the volume where it is high. suggest that choosing 85% of volume
would be optimum for the entire mp3 file.
