According to this FAQ 
http://mp3gain.sourceforge.net/faq.php

mp3gain is based on replaygain and thus equally reversible? It also
states that ".. MP3Gain does not decode and re-encode the mp3 to change
its volume. You can change the volume as many times as you want, and the
mp3 will sound just as good (or just as bad!) as it did before you
started. .."

I was listening to a large playlist that mixes jazz guitar songs with
some R&B ballads, and RG with SmartGain is not able to even remotely
bridge the loudness gap between songs. At very moderate listening
levels, several songs basically are muted. And no, none of these songs
have ever undergone any type of treatment - they were ripped using
dbPoweramp and others were downloaded from Amazon MP3.

I am looking for a way to fix this in my collection.
