Utilisation de mp3gain

Hello, I think I have correctly followed the application guide, I have my mp3 files arranged in lines with each one set to its volume (I chose around 90) Question: what should I do with all these adjusted files now, can I normally create a super folder named for example "Processed MP3gain Files" to gather them together and then if I wish, add (or remove) other processed files and listen to them.
Another question: I think nothing prevents me from using the Shuffle feature if the player has that function.

Configuration: Windows 7 / Chrome 54.0.2840.99

I'm posting the personal message because I hadn't seen your post^^
Like, it serves everyone^^

Hi,
90Db is a really good choice if you've got sound... that is to say volume, and you want to make the most of amplifiers and your speakers instead of saturating at 50% like most commercial files these days. I have a big sound and I'm at 89db, it's perfect...

Now, what to do with all these adjusted files, how to use them? I can normally create a super folder named for example "Processed Files MP3gain" to gather them and then if I want, add (or remove) other processed files and listen to them.

Yes, good solution. Personally, I have a folder, no subfolders due to tags and display column issues. Since I tag everything, having everything in one folder, unlike many people, allows me to exploit all the musical tags, etc... bitrates, years, etc.. albums... right-click on the properties of the chosen folder, set folder type: music...
What you can't do in subfolders, though, is to have a PC and not too slow hard drives if you have a lot of files... I've seen cases with over 200,000 tags displayed... and the PC has to manage especially the hard drive, if it's SSD, it's direct...

And this folder is at 89db

When I go out to play at night, I set it to 92-94Db
because the guys play at 100dBs sometimes worse with the gains and it creates issues if you don't know the sound engineer to get him to turn up the volume...

But they prefer it, they're generally too low... it saturates faster, it clips...

You have an "UNDO CHANGE GAINS" function that restores everything because actually, it's not a modification of the file but just of the tag... there are programs to read them...

If you're DJs, remove the automatic DB gain functions that work very poorly and not on all formats and don't go through mp3gain... Serato DJ, etc... preference, turn it off; it's really awful.

If it's for simple listening, it's a question of support... if your support is a walkman and you don't have power, prefer 94 - 96 DB

But frankly, given the equipment we have... it's over....

After, I recommend two complementary tools and then you've got it all, lol
MP3tags
and especially Speek
I can explain Speek to you, you’ll see that we have a lot of fakes, even some files bought new that the producers have poorly sampled... a question of hertz and bitrate, an mp3 has different frequencies at 192kbps and 320, I'm not even talking about flac but that's too recent, few programs like mp3gain...

I'm talking about it here but I can explain better what it is...

Sorry for the spelling, I'm terrible, that's why I do few tutorials... no more friends to correct me, lol..

Especially the bottom, there's an interesting external link but I can explain it better in two seconds if needed^^
Good luck!
