CLUSTER AUDIO-LOUDNESS-UTILITY · 10 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2019-07-31
Audio loudness normalization tools
This cluster comprises desktop and command-line utilities that normalize audio loudness, write ReplayGain metadata, adjust playback volume, and analyze audio files for quality. Dated entries appear sporadically from March 2019 to October 2025, with three entries recorded in October 2025. All traction leaders (cumple, clearaudio-online, MasVisGtk) show zero stars, indicating no clear community standout.
Entry timeline
ENTRY TIMELINE
Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.

Two labels per entry, never collapsed into one: how it was built, and who stands behind it. Counted over the 10 listed below. Unlabelled means nothing has decided yet — not that the answer is small.

Ranked by traction, highest first, and paged 20 at a time — this is a window on the cluster, never the whole of it. Ties are broken by a stable id so a product cannot appear on two pages or fall between them. Browse every cluster.
