So is this the ReplayGain stuff?

If so then using SoundCheck in iTunes should give you something similar.
There is no data field in the MP3 standard which specifies how loud the
file is but there are some 'conventions' which do so. Apple has their

That's why I liked mp3 gain on the PC, it just boosted the file's
volume without requiring a re-encode. I am lucky though, I can get wav
files of these particular tracks, amplify them and then encode to
mp3... so it works as a stopgap solution for now. I really wish I had
something like what I had
True, but each time you re-encode an mp3 the sound quality gets a little
worse. The iTunes method is non-destructive but that also means it only
works inside the player. Have to pick the lesser of two evils.

If you are looking for file modification instead of presets, try Audacity. Just
open your file, install the MP3 encoder as described in the documentation, and
then open your file. Go to effects, then amplification, and make your changes,
then export the file to MP3.

A hacky way is to play with the gain on the iTunes equalizer. With EQ on
you can up arrow on the pram vertical slider to add 12dB of gain. It
won't announce the value as you up arrow but 5-6 up arrows should max it
out and if you VO-right and left it should announce 12dB preamp. In

Sorry, I thought my original e-mail would be included in the last one.
I am looking for a program that can boost the sound volume in mp3
files. On the PC, I used mp3gain because it worked better than
soundcheck does in iTunes and amplifies the file itself instead of
just when you listen on iTunes.
I'm not sure what the original question was, but if it's increased volume you
want, try VLC (videolan.org). That app seems to go way above the volume iTunes
or Quicklook can manage, and I usually leave the volume down some to keep
things manageable. Sorry if your question was something different
Don't mean to pester the list but I was REALLY hoping for a response
to this question. For someone who used a program like this for Windows
so much, I really need the same for the Mac. Does anyone have any
recommendations? I'm a bit surprised that no one has responded so far
given how many people h
