A normal "normalize" shouldn't compress audio. I've got an iOS DAW that
provides a limiter feature for "normalize" and allows to make the
highest level quasi > 0 dBFS, IOW the normalized signal than is
limited/compressed. However, without using such a feature, a regular
"normalize" just increases everything by the same amount, so
fortunately the impression of the sound stays unchanged, unfortunately
"normalize" doesn't "normalize" to an averaged loudness impression, if
possible, the level just increases. "normalize" makes the highest
level of a wav 0 dBFS, by increasing the complete wav level, it the
highest level can't be increased, than "normalize" does nothing at all.

Ralf
