OBEY 57,107 Posted June 18, 2015 Author Share Posted June 18, 2015 "Applause" is the same volume as the others, it just seems less so because the opening synth arrangement is set at an unexpectedly subdued level, and remain there for the rest of the track. It isn't until the beat kicks in that the opening makes sense in the bigger picture. Nonetheless, I usually have my iPod set to "Sound Check", which has all of the songs set to peak at the same volume. Not only the synth arrangement, but the vocals aren't as loud as they are on the other ARTPOP songs, i'm sure inb4 it's all in my head  Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder if that's what Gaga meant when she said all the tracks were "radio-friendly." Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gagaohlala 794 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 You all. Applause, at the begining, is less loud than Gypsy, and the end of Applause is 3 bpm more loud during the last chorus than at the begining. Source : Gaga. She wanted Applause to rise an explod at the end, that's why it seems less loud than Gypsy on a playlist.

Interesting And if i put sound chek on my ipod, the songs that are less louder (like lips are moving) should be equal to all my other songs? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With sound check, you shouldn't have to adjust your volume again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HausOfNena 1,712 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Applause is the loudest song on the album IMO. Â Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GagaMyBlood95 9,808 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 Never noticed it cause I don't listen to ARTPOP https://31.media.tumblr.com/eda29b1c62e3c2c26b93203b91acd3dd/tumblr_inline_nq0eazXbAp1qdrjot_500.gif    Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Bromance 5,809 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I guess I must have a hearing problem because I think the volume is just the same as all of her other up-tempo songs on ARTPOP.  I don't care what you think about unless it is about me.

Brooke Hoegan 1,017 Posted June 18, 2015 Share Posted June 18, 2015 I feel the same I've just listened to Gypsy, then +1 the sound for Applause, then -1 again to the Gypsy level for Brooklyn Nights and only then they all sounded equally loudly Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
