Help needed for setting up a simple (I think) favorite action

Hi everyone !

I’m not a recording engineer, just a mucic lover and I’d like to prepare a batch of audio files for listening while commuting. I wonder if someone would be willing to help me setting up a “favorite action” that I could batch apply to a large set of files. Here’s what I think the succession of actions should be :

1. Match loudness to –23 LUFS
2. Dynamics Processing > Classic soft knee (I think it’s the best option, but correct me if I’m wrong)
3. Match loudness to –23 LUFS

In my understanding, the first pass of loudness matching is important in order to have the dynamics processing operating correctly on tracks with different sound levels. And a final loudness matching is required, once the dynamics has been compressed, because the level of the resulting track can be louder or softer, depending on the music piece.

I think setting up an action with these steps must be rather “easy” for a specialist, but not for me. I’ve started to study Audition’s user guide, but the learning curve is rather steep and it appears it will take me a looong time to get there…

I thank veeery much in advance whoever who will help me — maybe set up the action directly ? I cross my fingers… 😉

Kind regards.
