A music player that levels the volume? (1 Viewer)

[Scientician 0.8]

When you have a load of MP3s from different sources queued up the volume often varies signficantly from track to track. Anyone recommend a music/media player that corrects this?

iTunes has this functionality, it's called Soundcheck (the ipod has it builtin too)

I've never used iTunes before. Does it work well?

Because surprise increases in volume are no good for soundsystems.Or punters.

Anyway,all mp3 players have a smart volume mode I thought.Mine does.

Ah ha!

"Many times you will turn up a track that was recorded with a lower volume, then the next track comes along and plays twice as loud, thus scaring the hell out of you and damaging your ears. Well this moment of terror is over thanks to the Vision:M's "Smart Volume" feature. This normalizes the volume of every track played, so that each plays at the same volume. This is a really nice feature which all MP3 players should"

I did not know that, i thought it just made everything quieter... the moment of terror no more!

I've the vision M.Class yoke altogether.

Especially if yer playing a party and you don't wanna knock grannies teeth into her port.

The Vision M is a triumph of mp3 design alright. I dunno about other players but if something goes wonky (which hasn't happened with mine yet) you can get parts and fix it yourself, I got a new screen for a friend and got technical on that sheeit
