I understand that you need to e.g. normalize the whole thing,
as opposed to normalizing each piece first and then concating.
But that assumes the individual pieces are well mastered,
e.g. the relative volume of each is what it is supposed to be.

That's the opposite of what you said before: you have one huge file,
so what "every file" do you mean? And if you want to process each
of the pieces differently, why do you have the one huge file?
