Hello Piers,
Thank you for the note on good initial impressions with the system sent.
The word for bringing loud and soft sounds naturally closer together is "compression." This is not volume adjustment, but a tool in
available in pure analog domain as a separate effects box (vacuum tube devices are most favored here) and pure digital audio
domain as a software tool in most professional editing suites.
I have used "compression/expansion" functions to good effect in music and voice recordings where loud and soft is at too much
distance in levels for a "full sound" that's accessible to most casual listeners.
An example (30 sec clips) of extreme compression use is labeled as "Bonus" example of compression 'before and after" on
selection "Christmas on Christmas Island" at:
