Hi, and sorry if this had been asked before. I can't find quite what I'm looking for.
I'm using Audition CC.
I have a batch of twenty, 24bit 44.100, Wav's from a school band. They don't require any processing with the exception that they are all too quite. They peak between about -9db and -12db.
I want to share them on CD and as Mp3 for iPhone etc. I am looking at amplifying them using "Normalize to" but can't decide between -1db, -01.db and -3db.
My question is; A) Is this the correct way to go about increasing the volume? B) What are the recommended settings (db wise) for CD and Mp3?
Thanking you in anticipation.
