I have an MP3 that is volume is very low on. Much lower
than other MP3s that I am trying to burn to CD. How can I
increase the volume on this MP3 without causing clipping or
distortion? Please help, I'm new to Sound Forge.

1 Open the MP3 in SF.
2 In SF's taskbar, go to Process -> Normalize.
3 In the new menu, select "Normalize using Peak Level" and press OK.

This will increase the track's volume to just below clipping point.
Thus, you'll get a maximum volume without clipping.

Good luck.
