Okay, I'm having good luck converting flac to mp3 with sound converter. Great little program. If you haven't checked it out you should. Thanks for the help with that.<br><br>Now I have a new problem. Some of my source CDs are less "dynamic" than others - particularly older ones. Short of buying remastered versions, is there a way to "pump up the volume" so to speak? There is a wide variety of sound levels on the mp3 CDs I've made so far. There used to be a tool in windows that would scan for the highest peak level and then set the ripper to just under that level - or something similar, I can't remember exactly. Is there a tool in Linux that can either rip at higher levels (and not just a higher bit rate as that seems to have no effect) or that can volume level a bunch of tracks before burning? I'm sure I could open songs with Audacity and edit them, but I don't want to do this song by song. I want something (CLI okay) that will find the peak in a selection of songs and bump up everything else to be similar.<br>
<br>Anyone? Anyone?<br><br>Thanks.<br clear="all"><br>-- <br>Jim (Ubuntu geek extraordinaire)<br>----<br>Please avoid sending me Word or PowerPoint attachments.<br>See <a href="http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html">http://www.gnu.org/philosophy/no-word-attachments.html</a>
