Thirty years ago I recorded all my vinyl to Digital Audio Tape to ensure a perfect copy. Six years ago I recorded all those files as WAVs and then saved them as FLAC adding the meta-data by hand. Quite a task! When I recorded the vinyl I was careful to ensure only the peaks ventured into the red.
I then ripped my CD collection to FLAC. The only problem is different volume levels. I've been able to live with for a while but there's such a difference in volume between my vinyl-sourced music and CD ripped ones it's becoming tiresome to keep diving for the volume control.
I did some research and a program named MP3Gain kept coming up. I tried it but as the name suggests it's for adjusting MP3 files, not FLAC. Can anyone recommend a program to do this please? I understand it doesn't change the source files but uses tags to tell my streamer (Bluesound Node 2i) how loud to play it.
Many thanks for any advice.
