Answer 1

Hi, I'm Rodrigo and I will help you.
I understand you want to normalize the volume on your music files.

You can do it using a third-party tool. MP3Gain is a free tool for that.
Download it at the link below, extract the files and open MP4GainGUI.exe

On the program, add the files or folders, select "Track Analysis" to analyze the files, and then "Track Gain" to apply the needed changes.

If you don't want to normalize the volume on audio files, the loudness equalization options given by Q&A Assist above are the options for you.

Answer 2

Windows includes built-in technologies that help keep perceived loudness more consistent across different audio tracks and sources.

1. Enable loudness equalization on the playback device (if available)
   • Open Settings → System → Sound.
   • Under Output, select the speakers or headphones used for music.
   • Open Device properties or More sound settings (depending on Windows version), then go to the Enhancements or Advanced tab.
   • Look for Loudness Equalization and enable it.
   • Apply/OK and test music playback.
   Loudness equalization is a DSP effect that keeps perceived loudness within a specified range so quieter parts are easier to hear and loud peaks are reduced. This is useful when different tracks or sources vary a lot in volume.
2. Use dynamic range control when supported by the player/format
   • Some content encoded with Windows Media Audio Professional/Lossless can use dynamic range control.
   • In players that expose this (for example, via a “Quiet Mode” or similar option), enable it when watching movies or listening to content with very large differences between quiet and loud parts.
   • Dynamic range control reduces the difference between the lowest and highest volumes so less manual volume adjustment is needed.

These two features (loudness equalization and dynamic range control/Quiet Mode) are the primary Windows-side options for volume leveling across music and other audio.
