Hi guys ! I have been working with music all my life and I believe this would be a great way for me to work on an audio related application to work on my skills… **Proposal** : Has anyone not thought about adding a separate on/off button on the GUI or creating a “Movie w/Leveling” template option? Don’t you hate it when you are watching a movie at night but you have to keep turning the volume up and down because of certain scenes or the way certain music is mastered ? Well, Volume leveling is a great option for this application and I would love to work on it on if there are enough votes. I believe this option would really add a great feature to apply while watching movies or while listening to music ! 🙂 ---

Thanks for the suggestion. I worry it’d be a feature that not many would use and it would take up a lot of real estate on the UX. But if enough people want it we’d consider it! ---

Thank you for considering! Could you explain how would adding the feature take up space on the UX? ---

No problem. Well I guess something like this could be put in the settings instead of the main UX. ---

I think This idea would greatly improve an already great program even better as I watch movies and TV on my computer. ---

Of course people will use it. Especially if you play games or watch movies with huge dynamic range, where you will have to choose between not killing your ears or neighbours nerves and hearing speech/small details of the soundtrack. ---

Bit of a necropost, but would love to know if you came to write the audio-related application? I have been wanting this feature since an acquaintance and I watched a movie _16 years ago_. He had this very Frutiger Aero-esque mixer on his PC that had the knobs, buttons, sliders, and lights resembling the center unit ‘receiver’ of those oh so nostalgic stereos. ---

Audio leveling can be useful for keeping dialogue and music at a more consistent volume, but too much processing can make everything sound flat. I’d try adjusting the dynamic range or leveling strength gradually and compare it with the original audio. That usually helps find a balance without losing the natural sound.
