I am a new member of Deezer. So far I am very please with it, and I think it is something to be grateful for, Big Time! However, it is shocking to discover that 'Loudness Normalization' is not integretad in Deezer Music streaming. As it is a fundamental element of playing a mixed of audio tracks, with diversified recording sound levels. 'Loudness normalization' was created to combat varying loudness when listening to multiple songs in a sequence. Before 'loudness normalization' is applied, one song in a playlist might be quieter than the rest, so the end listener has to adjust the playback volume. This is insane to have such a situation today -- How can any audio streaming service neglect such a basic need as Audio Normalization?

Hi

I think what you want is volume normalisation, not loudness as loudness is a feature from the past that only boosted the low and highs of a track but not the volume. You want the volume to be consistent across all tracks but not maxed out like a radio station. All track need to retain their full dynamics.

Some artists provide their albums at a very low volume level. Normalization is an absolutely needed feature!
