AMIE Injector compare table: normalization gain and true peak for one master across six streaming platforms
Wednesday, October 14, 2026
One table with the loudness level each major streaming service normalizes to, whether it turns quiet tracks up, how it handles albums, and where each number comes from. Checked against the platforms’ own documentation and kept current.
