USING SOUNDBOOTH CS4 42 Editing and repairing audio files Match To File Matches to the average volume of a specific file. Choose this option if one file reflects the target volume you want to achieve. The Account For Perceived Loudness option focuses analysis on midrange frequencies that the ear is most sensitive to. Keep this option selected unless frequency emphasis varies greatly in a file (for example, midrange frequencies are pronounced in a short passage, but bass frequencies are elsewhere). Match To Peak Volume Matches to a peak value you specify. Because this option retains dynamic range, it's a good choice for files you plan to process further, or for highly dynamic audio like classical music. 6 Click Match Volume. 7 Review the reported volume change in each file, and click Close.
