Adjusting volumne - one song only

Post by Kerrymitch »

Hi

I have a slideshow sorted with 4 music clips added. One of them is very quiet and I want to turn up the volume on that one only. When I adjust the volume for it, they ALL turn up.

Any tricks anybody?

I want to increase the volume of only one of them.

Yes.... open that quiet one with Audacity a FREE sound editor and easy to use. Just increase the volume and save the file either under the existing or a new name and then use that.

That's great, thanks for your reply. I've downloaded and can get my file into the sound controls, but I've never played with anything like this before.

Can you advise how to increase the volume on the piece of music?

When the file has been opened in Audacity select the area you wish to amplify by wiping over it with your mouse holding the left button down.

At the top of the screen you will see
File Edit View Project Generate Effect Analyze Help

Select Effect | Amplify. Adjust the level of amplification to one of your liking.

Select File | Save as
Choose WAV.
