Don't convert one of the songs to AAC, import the high quality WAV to your iPod and listen to it. Does the WAV sound good on your laptop? Are you using iTunes Plus for conversion or regular iTunes.

If your show is 10dB low, you can continually boost by 2dB until you can't any more -- the show is as loud as it can get without damage. If you click Allow Clipping, you can keep boosting it "forever." What are you trying to do that the tool will not do? Normalize is a cousin to Amplify an...

Each time you make a new selection in your show, Amplify changes to reflect the amount of boost needed to achieve the target -- the two window values. If you change one of the values, the show will change and the values will change. It's a dynamic tool.

a mixed down drum kit.

Where are the instruments? Same room?

What I want is just the peaks of the noise to force themselves through like in an airliner radio several miles out. There doesn't seem to be any setting of Noise Gate that will do that, but it should. I should be ...

Some of that sounds like natural acting voice and some of them maybe a pitch shift downward to make it sound unnatural, and then echo and reverb layer poured over everything. If you're a natural tenor I don't know that there's anything we can do. I wonder if you could do anything with the vocoder ef...
