analysis
Hi, I have just analyzed my entire library to regularise the gain on all tracks, it took over 2 days. It finished whilst I was away from the laptop. What has happened to the results there isn't anything in the task queue? What happens next? Thanks.

The results were written to beaTunes' database and potentially to your files. In beaTunes you can open the Info panel (CTRL-I) for a song and it should show you the computed normalization levels.
When playing these tracks with beaTunes, beaTunes will honor the gain setting you can configure under Playback in its preferences.
Whether other apps will respect the computed gain, depends on those other apps' settings and what settings you've analyzed your library with:

Hi Hendrik, Sorry I understood that after analysing any number of songs the results would be written to itunes so that when playing them back in itunes all volumes would be the same. Thanks

Hey Dave,
As pointed out, this depends on the kind of library you have created (iTunes- or folder-based) and whether you have turned embedding on before the analysis.
Please see this page for the proper procedure.
Thanks!

Hi Hendrik, how do I work out what type of library I have?
Thank you!

In the beaTunes general preferences, your music library is listed. It starts with either "iTunes" or "FileSystem".

Thank's for your excellent customer service Hendrik. I have checked and it starts with Itunes so that's great. I have also changed the preferences as mentioned above so hopefully the results will get written to Itunes next time I analyse.
Is there a way I can check if it has worked if I pick say 50 songs to see if it has worked?

Since you have run the analysis before, please don't forget: You must enable force overwriting (in the general preferences)!
Select some songs, run the analysis on them (File -> Analyze), check whether the Volume Normalization values in iTunes (under Info, File, Volume) and beaTunes are the same.
