Description : replaygain for WAV files
WaveGain is an application of the ReplayGain algorithms to standard PCM wave
files. Calculated gain adjustments are applied directly to the audio data,
instead of just writing metadata as traditionally done for other formats
like MP3, FLAC and Ogg Vorbis.
.
Replaygain is a standard that allows compatible players to play audio files
with an adjusted volume gain so they have a consistent perceived loudness.
.
Loudness can be averaged either for each individual file, also called "Track"
or "Radio" mode, where every song is adjusted to the same standard loudness;
or
by group, also called "Album" mode, where individual "songs" may sound louder
or quieter than others, but each "album" as a whole has the same average
loudness as other albums.
.
