[LAU] Normalize to -1db peak

[Peter P.]

Try SoX

 $ sox infile.wav outfile.wav norm -1

and with wildcards executing for all soundfiles in the directory
 $ for a in *.wav; do sox "$a" "`echo $a|sed -e s/.wav//`_norm.wav"; done
(WARNING: This is untested and you should first try this in a separate
folder holding trial copies, not your original soundfiles.)
