You have to click on the tool icon with the blue line
to go into
envelope mode ...
To leave envelope mode, click on the icon that looks like a capital "i".

thank you for the video, really helps. So I'm looking for peak areas and I level them out right?

It's how they sound rather than how they look , the too-loud (or too quiet) bits may not actually be conspicuous on the shape of the envelope.
A compressor (or limiter) will try to make the waveform a constant amplitude, but to the ear this
may make some things too loud, e.g. when there is a solo.
PS
after looking at the
spectrogram view on Audacity , I've had another go at the EQ ...

New to these forums but not with using Audacity. Took a crack at the OP's sample mp3 by first applying an EQ shown in the screengrab png, duplicated the single channel and turned it into stereo and applied AUMatrixReverb plugin selecting Plate with a 30% dry/wet mix.
