Setting Songs to Play at the Same Volume Level

The loudness of songs and other audio may vary depending on how the audio was
recorded or encoded. You can set iTunes to automatically adjust the volume of songs
so they play at the same relative volume level, and you can set iPod shuffle to use
those same iTunes volume settings.

To set iTunes to play songs at the same volume level:

1

In iTunes, choose iTunes > Preferences if you’re using a Mac, or choose Edit >
Preferences if you’re using a Windows PC.

2

Click Playback and select Sound Check.

To set iPod shuffle to use the iTunes volume settings:

1

Connect iPod shuffle to your computer.

2

In iTunes, select iPod shuffle in the list of devices.

3

Click the Summary tab.

4

Select Enable Sound Check.

5

Click Apply.

If you haven’t turned on Sound Check in iTunes, setting it on iPod shuffle has no effect.
