Volume levelling will generally not affect quality in an audible way up to 95dB. However within MediaMonkey you can use Analyze Volume instead and enable/disable Play > Level Playback Volume to fit your needs. Analyzing does not affect the audio of the file.
HI Lowlander. I seem to have forgotten I posted this. Apologies for the delayed response. I tried MM's volume leveling about a year ago and couldn't figure out why the music sounded so bad...distorted. I turned off MM VL and it fixed the problem.
That said, I did notice the volume analyzing and assumed it was non-destructive to the file. However, one reason I've used mp3gain all of these years is that, while it doesn't impact the file itself, it does attach the changes to the file non-destructively, meaning whatever device, app or program I use, the volume leveling goes with the file.
My original question was prompted by the recognition that mp3gain hasn't been updated in a long time and wondered of there were something better. I've used mp3gain for a long time, and not all volume leveling has been at the same setting, thus I'll likely be re-doing the leveling in the near future. I wondered if there were a similar app.
Thanks for your comment.
