1. A method of automatically compensating audio volume, the method comprising:
- generating a gain value to adjust a level of an input audio signal by comparing an average level of the input audio signal with a predetermined input/output level curve;
adjusting an audio volume of the input audio signal by applying the generated gain value to the level of the input audio signal; and
adjusting a dynamic range of the input audio signal having the adjusted audio volume.
