in general, "normalization" tends to refer to operations on the actual
sample values, not an average computed number like RMS.

if it doesn't do that, its not really normalization.

normalization would never involved any of these 3 operations. if it
did, it would be called limiting or clipping or compression.

are you asking about how to do this as a user (i.e. "what tools are
available to let me do this?") or as a programmer/developer/tinkerer
(i.e "how would you go about doing this?")
