What loudness level does it normalize to?

A standard streaming/podcast target level, matching what most platforms expect so your audio doesn't sound noticeably quieter or louder than other content.

Is normalizing the same as just turning up the volume?

No — a simple volume boost raises everything equally and can cause clipping on loud peaks; normalization analyzes the whole clip's loudness and adjusts it to hit a target level cleanly.

Will normalizing fix a clip that has both very loud and very quiet sections?

It adjusts the overall level to a consistent target, but for large internal swings between loud and quiet moments within one clip, dedicated compression would help more than normalization alone.

Does Audio Normalizer upload my files to a server?

No. Audio Normalizer runs entirely in your browser using on-device processing, your files never leave your device.

About this tool

Audio recorded at different times or from different sources rarely comes out at a matching volume — one clip is noticeably quieter than another when played back to back, which is jarring for a podcast or compilation. This tool normalizes a clip's loudness to a consistent, industry-standard streaming or podcast level, so multiple clips play back at a matching perceived volume instead of requiring listeners to keep adjusting the volume.
