Spans are likely too long. You can sister the joists to dampen some of the
sound and bouncy-ness of the floors. You could also add in some insulation to dampen the sound, but it won't do anything for the bouncy-ness of the floors.

Depending on your level of DIY . . . not a terrible job to just sister the joists.

I'd still probably check and see if there is a joist that is sunk or lower than the others.
