MP3 Normalizers are commonly used to keep a common volume across all the tracks on a CD. This is particularly important when the music on the CD is from different artists or CDs.
"There's a loudness race in the (pop) music industry, where every year levels are pushed closer and closer to the maximum by the use of dynamic range compression. Which means that a Britney Spears CD from 2000 can be louder than a metal track from 1985. And an orchestra playing at full belt (over 100dB peak SPL!!!) is quieter than either, because classical music CDs haven't entered into this loudness race.
So, simply, the tracks on a CD aren't at the volume they are supposed to be listened to. On an individual CD things are OK, but between CDs, you have to adjust your volume control a lot to get the tracks to the volume they're supposed to be listened to." -- source
CDMaster32's built-in normalizer does not use a peak normalizer like many other products on the market. Instead, CDMaster32 implements the www.replaygain.org method for normalizing audio tracks. ReplayGain's technique is superior to the standard peak normalizer because it models how the human ear perceives volume and combines it with statistical processing to provide truly remarkable results.
I invite you to download CDMaster32 for yourself to see just how easy it is to use our Normalizer. See a screen shot of our Normalizer.
