Help with evening out the levels on tracks

[Guest mogwai]

I've created a mix but after opening it in Wavelab all the levels are screwed up between tracks. There's just a huge difference in volumes between the different tracks as their mixed together.

 

Is there any way i can maybe even out all the levels ? I've played around with the normalise and the gain but haven't had much luck. Can I use some sort of compressor or other piece of software to fix this?

 

thanks in advance.

Use a compressor. I reccomend the Waves Gold tools, but even SoundForge has a reasonably good compressor. Set the threshhold just below the level you want to use and set the ratio pretty high (10-1 or more) (only compress the trouble sections, if possible).

i would use a compressor with a medium attack and a slow release at a high ratio
