I am working on a multimedia movie using Director 7. I have
been using .wav files recorded on microsoft's sound
recorder and incorporating them into my movies, but the
files have varying sound levels depending on who was
speaking,when, etc. What results is that some sounds can
hardly be heard and adjusting your computers volume for
them only causes your eardrums to rupture on other sounds.
Is there a way to run all my files through something that
will change them to the same volume level? Re-recording is
not an option since many sounds are regular sound files
from microsoft.

thanks in advance.
