One quick way is to have your file in the arrangement, not the session view, highlight the file or whatever part of it you want normalized, then ctrl+j. you'll notice in the clip view of the sample that the volume level has adjusted to matched the original setting. Just set it back to 0.00 db. The consolidated/normalized file is located in your current project folder in samples/processed/consolidated.

Wow, I'm surprised there's not an easier workflow.

One of the things I love about maschine (Native Instruments) is the ability to "in-line" normalize a sample.

There may be others. So don't figure that's the only way. I think if you have the Sampler instrument you can right click on it and it has the option.
