Transport volume settings into mp3

Audacity Help Forum macOS

Dear users,

maybe that issue was already addressed, but I didn’t find any proper topic - so I’m just opening a new one.

I made some recordings with different volume level. When I change the volume in one audio file and then export it as a mp3 - the change of volume is not transported into the mp3. It is still as loud or silent as it was before. How can I manage that the change of volume is also transported into the exported mp3?

Thanks a lot and I hope I explained my issue well enough. My English is not the best.

Cheers!

How exactly do you “change the volume in one audio file” currently?

If you changing the playback volume in the mixer toolbar, that is not actually a change to the audio file. What happens if you use Effect > Amplify?
