Editing Dynamic range compression (section)

== Software audio players ==

Some [[audio player (software)|software audio players]] support [[Plug-in (computing)|plugins]] that implement compression.  These can increase loudness of audio tracks, or level out the volume of highly-variable music (such as [[classical music]], or a playlist that spans multiple music types). This improves the listenability of audio played through poor-quality speakers, or when played in noisy environments (such as in a car or during a party).
