.TH MP3GAIN "1" "April 2009" "mp3gain version 1.4.6" "User Commands"
|
||
|
|
.SH NAME
|
||
|
|
mp3gain \- analyzes and adjusts mp3 files so that they have the same volume
|
||
|
|
.SH SYNOPSIS
|
||
|
|
.B mp3gain
|
||
|
|
[\fIoptions\fR] \fI<infile> \fR[\fI<infile 2> \fR...]
|
||
|
|
.SH DESCRIPTION
|
||
|
|
Tired of reaching for your volume knob every time your mp3 player changes to a new song?
|
||
|
|
MP3Gain analyzes and adjusts mp3 files so that they have the same volume.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
MP3Gain does not just do peak normalization, as many normalizers do. Instead, it does some statistical analysis to determine how loud the file actually sounds to the human ear.
|
||
|
|
.PP
|
||
|
|
Also, the changes MP3Gain makes are completely lossless. There is no quality lost in the change because the program adjusts the mp3 file directly, without decoding and re-encoding.

(use "\-? wrap" switch for a complete explanation)

.PP
|
||
|
|
If you specify \fB\-r\fR and \fB\-a\fR, only the second one will work.
|
||
|
|
If you do not specify \fB\-c\fR, the program will stop and ask before
|
||
|
|
applying gain change to a file that might clip.
