Joining songs with different volume levels

Hello
 
First of all I have to apologize because I am a complete noob and it’s my first time using SONARE.
 
I need your help because I have several songs (some in midi format, some in audio format and a few combining midi and audio track) and I want to join a few making some sort of medley. The problem is those individual songs have different volume levels (they sound with different volumes when I listen to them one by one) and I would like to create a medley sounding always the same level.
Is there any plugin or process I can apply to solve this problem?
 
Thank you a lot for all your attention and help.

    You can use automation on the volume to do exactly what you want to do.  I think there are some videos on YouTube that might show you how to do what you want to do (it is a little involved to explain on a forum).

    Automation of volume envelopes is one way....  using the Process audio> gain+  and applying it is another.
     
    I will sometimes use the audio process gain either up or down as needed in some clips.
     
    Either way works..... just listen through the process change or the envelope to be sure it is totally transparent.

    You have the same post in two forums. That's a little confusing. 

    SONAR PE 8.5.3, Asus P5B, 2,4 Ghz Dual Core, 4 Gb RAM, GF 7300, EMU 1820, Bluetube Pre  -  Kontakt4, Ozone, Addictive Drums, PSP Mixpack2, Melda Creative Pack, Melodyne Plugin etc.
