    Volume utility

    Hi,
    does anyone know of a utility for changing the volume of many sound files at once?

    The sounds in our game are at about 25% volume that they should be, but we need to normalize them all to a nice volume. Using sound forge 7 and wavelab 5 but they dont seem to have this functionality.

    cheers

    Dunno if it can batch normalize, but it's still a darned good sound editor.

    (Correction: audacity is done in C++, there is no Pascal...)

    sox is The sound editor focused on doing everything from command-line. This means that you can do all the work from bash scripts etc. For example this bash command will take all *.wav files in current directory and generate 2x louder versions in louder/ subdirectory:

    for FFF in *.wav; do sox $FFF louder/$FFF vol 2.0; done

    See http://sox.sourceforge.net/

    Just for running sox or bash scripts such tricks with emulators are not needed... Just use MinGW or Cygwin which provide a lot of substantial Unix/Linux stuff simply compiled for Windows, including bash. SoX compiled natively for Windows is also available from SoX homepage.

    There's also GoldWave, which supports batch processing ...and it's written in BORLAND!.... C++ though
