ReNormalizer: Peak Normalization for Wwise

ReNormalizer is a tool to change the peak volume of audio files in your Wwise project. It opens a simple window where you can see the current peak level of your selected files and set a new target.

Features

  • Peak Normalization: Set a new peak volume (in decibels) for your audio files
  • Live Feedback: See the current peak value for each selected file
  • Simple Slider: Use a slider to set the new peak level
  • Batch Processing: Normalize multiple audio files at once

How to Use

  1. In your Wwise project, select one or more audio files you want to normalize
  2. Right-click the selection, go to the waapi-tools menu, and choose Re-Normalize your sounds
  3. A window will open showing the selected files and their current peak values
  4. Use the slider to set your target peak level and apply

How It Works

The tool uses WAAPI to get the file paths of your selected audio files in Wwise. It then reads each file, calculates the current peak amplitude, and applies peak normalization using the pyloudnorm library.

Libraries Used

  • waapi-client: Communicates with Wwise via the Wwise Authoring API
  • pyloudnorm: Handles peak normalization
  • soundfile: Reads and writes audio files
  • customtkinter: Creates the UI
