Sound seems to fluctuate

[NJW1979]

Hi. I have been desperately trying to find a volume equalization program for my gaming. I have some sounds quiet and some sounds are deafeningly loud. I tried WALE and it IS trying to equalize the volumes, however, it sounds like the overall volume is fluctuating up and down. I looked at the settings and don't understand them. All solutions I found are for Realtek onboard, which I hate as my 5 speakers sound tinny and the bass from my sub sounds flat. I have a Sound Blaster X3 USB sound card. When I search for volume equalization programs, apart from WALE everything else is all just graphic equalizers, which are already present in the Creative app. This program is the closest I can find. Can you give me some tips to get the loudness equalized and not have fluctuating overall volume?

you can try higher Comp Rate.
but because of WALE is using the output peak value, it could be different from actual hearing sound level. so i'm afraid to say but, a little of fluctuation is no choice, and it could easily recognized by human ears.
