Re: Is there a global normalize?

Im affraid Eric that in all my time working on PP I have never found such a way (If you ever find a way please let me know). If I know that I am going to have a lot of audio clips in the end edit I normalise them as I go.

If this does not appeal to you then there are one or two ways around it (but even still they will take time). 1. If you put all your audio clips onto the same track you can go to your audio mixer and select your track, pull down the read tab and click the 'write' option. This will allow you to push the fader up and down, so you can normalise your audio by ear but be warned it is very time consuming and at times not a very exact science which leads me onto option 2(You will need to have the CS3 package however). Again put all your audio onto the same track and solo it. export a master comp of the audio and bring it back into your project. Add this master to a new track and sync it up (should not be too hard). When the audio is in sync right click on your master track and you will see an option to 'Edit in Soundbooth', here choose the 'render and replace' option. This will launch soundbooth. There are many normalising presets and filters in soundbooth that will do a much better job than PP. Again to get it perfect you should spend a bit of time on it (if your audio was recorded on the same device and time than it will be easier for you). I would recomend option 2 (depend on the version you use) or pay the price for a lesson learned and individually normalise.

Hope this was some help. Good luck
