That works as designed. Automatic gain control is not what you want,
as it'll give unwanted compression to material with varying levels.

As anywhere where gain is involved, the user is in control. If using
too much gain, distorts, the user will reduce gain. You may help by
adding a slider for overall gain. Or perhaps apply (static) gain
that's the negative of the average of all your frequency band gains.

Cheers,
