Once the track is imported, you can always adjust the volume, using the vu-meter as an indication. Not very precise, but that helps bring all the tracks close to the same output. When you then burn that track, it's burned with the volume amplification. That's what I did when burning an audio CD made of old rock songs and newer ones. -Laurent. -- ============================================================================ Laurent Daudelin AIM/RV: LaurentDaudelin <http://nemesys.dyndns.org> Logiciels Nemesys Software mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Evil Empire n.: [from Ronald Reagan's famous characterization of the communist Soviet Union] Formerly IBM,now Microsoft.
