Hi, I’m encountering an issue with Audacity that I hope someone can help with.
I start with an audio file that sounds perfectly fine and has a good volume level. However, after I trim a few seconds (removing some unneeded parts) and export the edited file (WAV), the exported audio sounds noticeably quieter than the original.
I haven’t applied any effects or changes other than trimming — no normalization, compression, or gain adjustment. I’m simply cutting and exporting, yet the output volume drops significantly.
Has anyone else experienced this? Is there a setting or export option I might be missing that causes this volume drop?
Thanks in advance for your help!
