Hi there, I'd like to know if anyone has any suggestions on improving the sound leveling when switching between SoundCloud playlists and community requests, which search YouTube. I've found that SoundCloud is usually 2x louder than YouTube and I'm forced to juggle the volume depending on which platform the music is playing from.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

There's unfortunately nothing we can really do about audio level differences between platforms since browsers do not expose APIs that allow us to level audio. Ultimately you can run into cases where Soundcloud is quieter than YouTube too. It depends on the source of the content and how they leveled their audio.
