Gain

The Gain plug-in boosts or lowers a selected clip’s amplitude by a specific amount. Use it to smooth out undesired peaks and other dynamic inconsistencies in audio material.

Gain

Specifies the desired gain level. Set this value by manually adjusting the Gain slider, or by entering a numeric decibel value, or by entering a percentage.

Find Level

When clicked, displays the peak amplitude value of the current selection.

RMS/Peak Toggle

2 Choose AudioSuite > Other > Gain.

3 Adjust the Gain slider as desired.
