Right now, to make sure my overall recording falls in the correct range, I have to export to mp3 in Audacity, find the file on my computer, drop it into Checker, and then, if the volume isn't in range, go back to Audacity and make adjustments, then export and check in Checker again.
Is there a faster way to do this within Audacity? Or is it best to always use Checker?
Thanks,
Colleen
Checking overall volume in Audacity
Yes! See this wiki page for explanation. There is an effect called "ReplayGain", it's pretty self-explanatory.
The only negative thing about it is that if your audio is very uneven, ReplayGain, when asked to Normalize, will not hesitate to clip your loud parts. I hence recommend to only use it to "Analyze".

It's only a minor thing, but I never make that final run through Checker that you do; I assume that I've got it right, after I adjust the amplification.
