Program to compress dynamic range of wav file from command line?

Asked by Frosty555 in Miscellaneous Software, General Multi-Media Software, Audio Editing

Tags:

I'm looking for a command line utility to compress the dynamic range of a wav file. Basically make the soft parts louder and the loud parts softer, so the whole wav plays at approximately the same volume.

Note - i'm not talking about compressing a wav file into mp3 or any other format. I'm talking about changing the volume of various parts of a wav file, and outputting a wav file.

The hardware device that does what I'm looking for is called a "Dynamic Range Compressor". Lots of audio editing programs have the ability to apply this feature as well. So what I'm looking for is a command line tool that applies just this one effect to a wav file.

e.g.

compresswav.exe  C:\somefolder\mywavfile.wav

and it chugs for a few minutes and eventually generates a new wav file that has had the range compression filter applied to it.

Has anyone heard of anything like that that I can use?Start Free Trial
