Adapting volume
To whom it may regard,
I have nice playing Bluesound system. What has struck me is that there can be a significant difference in what sound volume the original music is recorded in and therefore I would greatly appreciate if you could make a function that will equalize the difference, so the final volume that I have in my speaker remains the same across the different tracks.
I hope it makes sense.
Best wishes

Bluesound already supports this feature for your local music in the form of Replay-gain.
There is however no means of levelling tracks streamed from online services.

Well… there are tools which do this automatically so a hands off procedure.
I scan each album on an Album basis so this reduces or increase the general level of the album keeping the deliberate quite and loud tracks as the artist intended.
I know some like every single track to be pretty much the same volume, again the application scans each track for the quiet / loud section then writes tags to get close as possible to your reference level.
The good thing about Reply-gain is that it’s only a metadata tag and can easily be removed and can be toggle on / off in Bluesound.
To be honest I no longer bother as I have a Bluesound RC1 remote handy to change the volume quickly if required without the time consuming effort involved using an phone / tablet. This also works with streaming services which Replay-gain does not.

Hi Mikkel,
according to Bluesound's support team, replay-gain will work on files with GAIN tags regardless of source.
Best, KriHad
