Oops, sorry. The first few bits of Part 1 are pre-Medical Adventure recordings and I didn't check them out too thoroughly when salvaging them. I'll see about either fixing that one or, failing that, re-recording it.

Okay, I just went and compared the mp3s on my system, and you're right -- they're both the same volume as far as my ear can determine. It must have been some unexpected artifact of burning them to a set of CDs for listening to in my car. But I've never had something like that happen before unless the files weren't normalized to each other to begin with and I also had disk-wide normalization turned off in my burning software -- which certainly wasn't the case this time. So, weird.

My apologies for the false accusation.

Well, assuming you re-downloaded file 5, that'd be because I fixed it. (By "How's that?" I meant "download it again and see if it's better," not "What'chu talkin' 'bout, Willis?" :) The amplitude of the graph it displayed in WavePad was, indeed, considerably smaller than those of its neighbors, so I amplified it to about 150%, so the wave peaks looked about the same size.

Depending on the MP3 player you're using on your computer, it might be correcting for high/low rec levels automatically (I know iTunes can do this, the config option is called "sound check", IIRC), which your CD player wouldn't have been doing.

Ah. I took it as the latter, and just listened to my local copies.

Downloading a new copy of section 5 now.

Yeah, that's probably the case -- at least, it explains all the facts.

I'll let you know how the reburn comes out.

Thanks.
