I used mp3 gain to remove the clipping on some songs I added, and it seemed to go and do stuff to all my other songs, and now my songs sound VERY low, even on full blast on my computer and ipod they sound very weak compared to before, is this unchangeable or what?

ESL? What are you trying to ask?

Lemme put it in easier terms for you, I used mp3 gain to eliminate clipping from my mp3s, but my mp3s volume became really low and I was asking how to change it back to how it was before, but it doesnt matter since I found out how

Make sure you have MP3Gain set to:
Target "Normal" Volume: 89.0 db (default)

On your computer you can increase the main system volume which will effect all sounds on your system so don't forget the speaker volume knob when playing back non-replaygain'd material.

what was the target volume that you used?

89db (mp3gain/replaygain default) will make alot of modern music much quieter.

perhaps what you really want to do is apply maximum gain without clipping.


* Edited becuase you should never post when you're under the influence.

will un-doing the gain changes degrade the mp3 quality?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decibel

+3 dB means approximately twice the power, and +6 dB means approximately twice the voltage. +10 dB is, by definition, exactly twice the volume.

No, MP3gain changes are lossless.

Shouldn't it be 10 times?

Nope, +10 dB is exactly ten times the power, and exactly twice the volume.

...though when you're talking about perceived volume, it's not really fair to say that. +10dB often sounds like more than twice as loud, and it's all frequency dependent.
