iPod/iTunes sound check question.

hey guys and gals, i got a question regarding sound check on my iPod. I have the feature turned on but some songs are still crazy loud compared to the others. anyway to fix this?

I've noticed that Sound Check doesn't do the best job of properly adjust some track, and I'm not sure the reason. At one point I did run across a third party plug-in that claimed to do a better job. It wasn't free and the reviews said that it was slow, but at least that's one option. You can go in by hand a adjust individual track volumes, though that's a very painstaking and lengthy process.

Try MP3Gain: http://mp3gain.sourceforge.net/.

You can set a specific dB rating for all your MP3s and it'll apply it to all of them, no need to do it one by one.

I now use MacMP3Gain which can be found on versiontracker.com. its awesome. Just remember to change the gain from 89db to 92db.
