But WAV files and CDs are limited to 0dB, and your DAC is limited to 0dB also. * GoldWave itself won't clip because it uses floating-point internally. It's a matter of taste and you can over-do it. Of course dynamic compression reduces the dynamic contrast in the track so it will be "constantly loud", and at some point it may sound distorted.
Compressor/Expander, Reduce Peaks Preset or the Reduce Loud Parts preset.ģ. Maximize volume (to get a starting point).Ģ. Obviously you can't compress the individual instruments/tracks, but some additional overall compression may help when trying to maximize the bass.ġ. That allows them to make a bass-heavy mix (if that's what they want) without making the rest of the mix too quiet. Then, they use more compression on the final mix during mastering. Mixing engineers use compression on the individual tracks before mixing, and sometimes they use ducking to reduce the bass guitar with the kick drum hits, etc. Some dynamic compression may help to bring-up the overall loudness after boosting the bass. Maximizing will bring the volume back down to a safe level, but of course everything else will be reduced leaving the bass 9dB louder than everything else, but overall the song will tend to be quieter. That means if you boost the bass by 9dB the bass will go over 0dB and you'll get clipping (distorted flat-topped waves)*. also sometimes after maximizing the audio and saving it and listening to it on a cd in the car it sounds quieter, the bass hits hard but everything doesnt match the bass output.Most songs are already normalized/maximized.
