On Windows 11, you probably notice that the audio plays at different levels when playing videos or music on your computer. You may also have experience commercials playing louder than the stream you are watching. 

Typically, you would adjust the volume manually for each content, but this can quickly become annoying. However, if you are dealing with different sound levels in videos or any other type of content with audio, you can quickly normalize the audio on Windows 11 to have a consistent sound volume level across applications and web browsers.

In this guide, you will learn the steps to normalize the output sound on Windows 11.

Normalize volume on Windows 11

To change the sound settings to normalize the volume on Windows 11, use these steps:

  • Open Settings on Windows 11.
  • Click on System.
  • Click on Sound.
  • Under the “Output” section, select the speakers setting.
  • Under the “Output settings” section, turn on the Enhance audio toggle switch.
  • Click the Advanced option.
  • Click the Enhancements tab.
  • Check the “Loudness Equalization” option to normalize the volume on Windows 11.
  • Click the Apply button.
  • Click the OK button.

Once you complete the steps, you should now be able to watch shows online or listen to music with a consistent volume level on Windows 11. In addition, you can also use the “Loudness Equalization” option to boost sound volume, even when you max it out, and you’re still hearing things too low.

Open Settings on Windows 11.

Click on System.

Click on Sound.

Under the “Output” section, select the speakers setting.

Under the “Output settings” section, turn on the Enhance audio toggle switch.

It is important to note that most media applications include some sort of “loudness equalization” or “volume normalization” feature. However, Windows 11, similar to previous versions, features an option that allows normalizing the audio for the entire system.
