HOW IS THE VOLUME BETWEEN TITLES NORMALIZES?
WHAT ARE the benefits of activating the normalization feature?
The “NORMALIZE VOLUME” volume normalization feature allows you to achieve a volume of the same level, music title after music title, regardless of which one succeeds during playback.
This provides undeniable listening comfort rather than having to, as before, sometimes turn the volume up or down depending on certain pieces of music.
Note that this difference between a high volume and a low volume sound is called dynamic. If this sound is short or long (1 second or 3 minutes …), be it music, voice or noise.
WHY IS THE SOUND MUSIC OR LETTERS STRONG, SOME TIME?
We must not forget that music, recorded or not, as well as everyday acoustic sounds (those that surround us) are something “alive” which, like during a human discussion, necessarily contains volume passages. weaker sound and others that are louder.
The human ear is by definition used to these differences in sound levels. If these sound differences between the low and high levels did not exist, it could end up giving us a headache because the sound heard would not be natural. The ear needs moments of rest, even if only for a moment, and stronger moments for words to remain audible (and to work the ear again!). The human ear needs this natural “breath”.
Today’s music is very “compressed” (constant sound level, few low levels) when recording (mixing), that is, there are few passages with a big difference between the lowest and highest passage of the song. The STANDARDIZE feature can even be activated and not work much if all the titles of an album are very “compressed”.
Finally, the sound world is like the aquatic world: there are high and low waves. Some tracks are not recorded (mixed) like others. They leave a big difference between low and high noise levels. The NORMALIZE VOLUME feature allows you to level up and try to get everything back to the same level.
WHEN SHOULD I USE THE STANDARDIZATION FUNCTION?
Eg. On the street or in the subway, standardization plays an additional role in making your music more audible. And of course, first and foremost to get a comfortable listening when listening to different music titles with as much sound as possible.
WHY disable the standardization feature?
When the need arises, you can turn this feature off at any time when you want to find this “breathing sound”, titles read (play), with multiple moments that contain smoother (weaker sounds) and higher variations (it’s loud).
Especially if all the titles in your album or playlist are compressed at source, disabling the NORMALIZER feature will help your ear rest, at the end of the day you will be less tired.
Deezer’s NORMALIZE feature does not compress sound and fatigue, it only reduces the major differences between high-level and low-level titles.
