Non-stable audio normalization

[tte0]

Is there an existing issue for this? (Please read the description)

• I have searched the existing issues

Current Behavior

When audio normalization is enabled, it lowers the volume at different amounts at different parts of songs. I don't know the implementation but my prediction is that it caps the volume at a specific volume by lowering the volume at that moment.

Expected Behavior

I think the better would be to select a reference "highest" volume and lower the overall volume of the whole song according to that. The reference volume doesn't necessarily have to be the highest peak at a frame, it can be highest average of 1 second intervals.

Steps to reproduce

I noticed this in "Blackout - Colin Root" it is the most apparent one that I can find

Additional information

I don't actually know how it's implemented in different apps. So I would appreciate if you can tell whether this is possible to implement or not.
