I agree. We’re talking about different things though. It doesn’t level the entire track, it turns up the volume on the track (or down in this case. A lot of mine were set to 110dB) so all the tracks are averaged. It didn’t change the tracks themselves. I’m not an audio engineer, I don’t know the precise term. I still get, for example in edm, good bass drops, I just don’t have to touch the volume knob anymore.
I used an app to level my entire audio collection to 93 dB a while back. Now it’s all the same loud at the same number. It just took a day of work.
There is music that benefits from dynamic range. Maybe not metal or pop or techno, but classical music and soundtracks for example.
