Maximum PC

Does anyone know of a way to level off/boost the audio coming out of a system all to the same level? Basically, what I want is if I set the system volume to 100, then every program plays at 100, instead of having its own individual setting that winds up being less that max. I know that Windows 7 has volume equalization, but that only makes everything that is playing as loud as the currently loudest sound, and doesn't make things level over time.

So... guess these forums are dying out.

no, it just cant be done, there is no "automatic" mixer.

I just can't see how you can determine what the current volume level of the file is and then adjust accordingly on the fly without some sort of info in a header (for a lack of terms) in the file...

I haven't done any serious testing but Smart Volume from Creative works. I never get the extremely loud Youtube video or something of that nature to blow out your ears.

It's listed at the bottom here and yeah you probably need to buy a soundcard.
