Normalizing In Sonar 4 Producer

[Rick Shepherd]

I would like to nomalize a five track recording, but when I select all, then process audio, then normalize, Sonar only normalizes the first and last tracks. Can anyone assist me with this?

are these five tracks on individual track rows in sonar? is there a reason you are doing a select all?

have you already figured out the tracks level relative to each other and now just want to raise them to the peak relative level, or do you want to raise each track such that its peak reaches digital 0?

finally, are you normalizing because you are going to send your track to a mastering house or because you don't want to lose bits, or are you normalizing because you are a purist who never uses multi-band compression and maximizers (limiters) to make your mixes louder?

I'd be surprised if you could do several 'process audio' at once. Isn't each a separate function?

It could also be that the 3 in the middle already have a peak or two that hit zero, if so normalizing will have no effect on them.
