"ReplayGain is a proposed standard published by David Robinson in 2001 to measure the perceived loudness of audio in computer audio formats such as MP3 and Ogg Vorbis. It allows media players to normalize loudness for individual tracks or albums. This avoids the common problem of having to manually adjust volume levels between tracks when playing audio files from albums that have been mastered at different loudness levels."

- amarshall 7y agoThis doesn’t solve the problem that “louder” tracks typically have substantially reduced dynamic range Such tracks are often irreversibly worse than those with less compressed range.
