I always record auto sampler with enough headroom so i don't get distortion ( i want dynamics so don't compress) . However I often have to go through each sample and normalise. When creating expansions for myself I may have several hundred samples.

I cannot see a bulk way to normalise in the software or hardware.

Does anyone know any good utils or tips to bulk normalise please?

Get Audacity free. You can normalize in bulk. I love it.
Just look it up on google. For PC or Mac.

Alternatively Wavosaur, it has a great batch processing system, it was the only free editor I could find that could batch remove embeded loop points, saved me hours of work.

+1 for Wavosaur and Audacity.

You can use the maximizer on the Mpc itself too. I use the the preset that loads when you turn the effect on.

Thanks Guys, Audacity did the job really well.

I had to move the new samples once I had done. But wow- So much easier and quicker.

Much appreciated and a new trick up my sleeve
