My sound is not too loud?

The sound of my mac book air is not loud enough? Why?
I can hardly hear other person on call. Please help me out.

Hi AnuragRana,
There is no quick answer to your question, as everyone interprets sounds differently. What I will try to help with, however, is to give you steps and information about optimizing your computer, as well as the service manual for the internal parts.
This way, you can check for any harddrive issues, make sure your system is efficient, and search the manual to find out how many fans the G6 has.  I hope these help:

  • X6 wake-up alarm sound getting way too loud

    Hi.
    First post here, and think last 'cause I haven't found any annoyances besides this.
    Using X6 as an alarm clock for everyday wake up call.
    The alarm sound just keeps getting too loud that it comes an annoyance in a few seconds (I tend to keep X6 next to me on a bedside table).
    Have searched from the phone, but is it so that the Clock alarm "Ringing type" can not be changed as one can change the Incoming call ringing type in Profiles-section (possibilities are here: Ringing, Ascending, Ring once, Beep once, Silent)?
    Seems so that those two mentioned aren't even connected to each other, so that if I set Incoming call ringing type as Ringing, still to no avail, because this doesn't affect Clock alarm in any ways (and Clock alarms in Ascending-type).
    Any advice on this?
    (And could someone tell me, why this has been designed as is now?)
    Cheers

    wow people normally complain its to low
    the volume for an alarm tone is standard it cant be altered the only thing possible is to select another tone thats not high pitched
    you can change the alarm tone by going to clock icon then open this and go to settings here you can change the tone

  • I have two monitors and often watch a film while browsing. How can I change the sound level of firefox so its not too loud?

    I just want to be able to control the audio level of firefox separately from other running programs on the puter

    Hi jagrix,
    Unfortunately, Firefox is yet to have it's own volume control. Consequently, unless a site has it's own volume control, you can not modify firefox's sound.
    Personally, I think Firefox having it's own volume control could work out well for digital multitaskers! I'll make a suggestion on bugzilla right now. I will update this post with details of my bug id. later
    Hope this helps,

  • Why is it that an amplitude-scaled sound does not play louder than the original sound using Play Waveform?

    I don't know if I have posted this on a correct location (kinda new here).
    I am trying to demonstrate the effect of multiplying a constant to a waveform. I have a sound file read by Sound File Read Simple.vi. Then I am trying to scale the amplitude of the signal by a constant number. I've tried three methods for this: the Numeric Multiplication, the express VI Scaling and Mapping, and the scaling and conversion VI of Signal Express. The waveform shows that the amplitude of the scaled signal is indeed scaled, but when played thru the play waveform VI, the sound level is still the same, no matter how much I am scaling the input. Does anyone why is this so? Also, I really wanted to show that scaling an audio waveform results in a louder waveform. How do I do this? As much as possible, I've wanted to use simple VIs as the class is an introduction to signal processing and the students (and so am I) are still finding our way into LabVIEW (we used to use MATLAB in the course).

    Hi kirkbardini,
    According to this article about Low Volume From Sound VI, you can use a scalar multiple to increase the volume of a sound saved to a .wav file, so you should be able to do this before playing it.  Does that not work for you?
    That information is for Labview 7.x and hence outdated. As mentioned before. Labview do a normalization before sending data to the sound card. As you know sound cards are most often 16 or 24 bits. And in most cases data input to a sound card is in DBL type. After normalization the data is converted so the floating point value 1 represent full scale output on data sent to the the sound card DA. To get any further I suggest kirkbardini take the time needed to send us his/hers current code. Then we may solve things from there
    Besides which, my opinion is that Express VIs Carthage must be destroyed deleted

  • KDE sounds are much too loud

    After doing a system update a few weeks ago, all of a sudden, no matter what the master volume currently is set to, KDE blares the notification noises at 100%. It is quite a bother. I have tried fiddling with the sound channel levels in alsamixer, but to no avail. After searching for the problem on the internet, I found one other person with the same problem, but I couldn't get his solution to work for me:
    http://www.pclinuxos.com/forum/index.php?topic=104786.0
    Namely, my PCM volume was already higher than the master volume.
    Thank you for your time.

    I solved using "/usr/bin/paplay" as a custom player for notifications (the playback options in the system notifications tab of KDE control center).
    EDIT: never mind, that apparently didn't work...
    EDIT 2: nope, it actually does work! Just had to restart KDE!

  • Headphone sound too loud - how to get very fine volume control in osx

    I could not use my headphones on my new MBP, because the sound was always too loud, even on the smallest setting. It appears that lots of other people have similar problems, so here is a way to fix this:
    To get very fine sound volume control I use soundflower fromhttp://code.google.com/p/soundflower/. You have to restart after installing it. Then go to preferences/sound/output and choose soundflower(2ch). Start soundflower from the applications folder, click on the flower symbol in the top pannel and soundflower(2ch) built in output. Then go to Audio setup and change the master for soundflower(2ch). This way you can get the global sound less loud or you can amplify it.
    Hope this helps a few people

    You saved my life (and my ears) ! Thank you marcel-sl for sharing this (;
    Prety cool software if you have an USB headset too loud. Now, I can use F11 and F12 (;

  • Sound too loud durning commercials and chase scenes.

    Does anyone know of a program or way to to keep sound from getting too loud durning commercials and chase scenes? I am looking for a program or anything that will help.

    Try turning down the microphone level, and speaking up more yourself. We have inverse square law in effect here.
    Most audio is highly compressed at the server  so as to not overdrive the devices in that signal chain, unless you are using very high end encoders(read $$$$).
    Check your software and see if there is a noise gate setting, which would allow you to set a threshold for which the microphone will activate, anything below the threshold the mic will be turned off.
    Also let your officemates know that you are "on air and keep their comments to a minimum, and if they must confer, whisper into each others ear, just like on a TV set or a radio studio.
    Or you can spend alot of money for a number of pieces of equipment to accomplish this action.(and not always with great results)
    As you probaly guess I have a fair amount of audio experience, decades.

  • IMovie to iDVD--Video too dark, sound too loud--Help!

    I created three iMovie projects for my son's swim team, then made a DVD using iDVD. It was fine when viewed in iDVD's preview, but when burned to the DVD-R the video was too dark and the sound was way too loud. This is footage taken on a Sony digital camcorder (DCR-TRV11).
    I did the iDVD project by starting from scratch from within iDVD, then dragging the iMovie pieces and still images into the iDVD project. The iMovie pieces were prepared by using Share to make them into "full quality" .dv movies.
    When I play the finished DVD on my iMac, there are no unusual problems with the video or audio. It looks and sounds like it did when played from the digital camcirder. But when played on both of my standalone DVD players + TVs, the video is too dark and the audio is much too loud.
    Any idea why this is, and to fix it? I don't find a way to reduce the audio volume in iMovie. Maybe there is a workaround using the Relative Volume feature, but all my clips have a similar sound level. Any help will be appreciated.
    --Eric
    iMac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.3)  

    when burned to the DVD-R the video was too dark
    They is a VERY slight darkening during the MPG-2 compression process (see my pages Digital Video Color Bars Test at http://homepage.mac.com/profpixel/color_bars/colorbars.htm and iMovie HD and iDVD 5 Gray Patch Test at http://homepage.mac.com/profpixel/gray_patches/graypatches.htm )
    I suspect what you are seening is a major difference in brightness/contrast between your computer monitior and your TV set (and in fact you admit this: "When I play the finished DVD on my iMac, there are no unusual problems with the video or audio. It looks and sounds like it did when played from the digital camcirder. But when played on both of my standalone DVD players + TVs, the video is too dark and the audio is much too loud.") so you aren't seeing an iDVD problem.

  • 2nd time this has happened. Computer making noises too loud for computer.

    Okay, seriously I have had enough. While using Garage Band editing music, my computer once again made a too-loud beep/honk noise. This has happened once before. Now my audio/built in speakers are F'ed! NOW ALL MY AUDIO SOUNDS LIKE THIS: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OcTHGDOLEoc (you gotta play the video. )
    This has happened once before, but everything was okay except for a bit of distortion. WHY does this keep happening?! Heres a bit more information:
    - Using Garage Band, didnt press ANY buttons to trigger sounds
    - In using wireless internet, password protected
    - I only had iMovie and iTunes opened (as well as GB)
    - THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS ** HAS HAPPENED
    - The sound was WAY too loud for the computer. It was like Max times 50
    - I've only owned my Mac for about a year.
    - I do not want to get a new bloody Mac, I just downgraded from SL.
    I'm not really happy atm, so dont give me stupid answers.
    (Wow, it sounds like im listening to AM radio! WOW! ... -.- )

    I don't think you got a KP when the machine was off, but rather you may have closed the lid before the MB was fully powered down and it went into a sleep state.
    Did you try running the Apple Hardware Test to see if the ram is bad? Since yo never had a KP before adding new ram, and the only change was adding said ram. My guess is that its the memory that is the cause.
    I cannot vouch for patriot ram, but I suggest in the future you consider Crucial as its a higher quality ram.

  • My audio beats are not as loud anymore

    I have a pavilion dv6 and my sound is not as loud anymore... the other day I saw a little Beats logo cancelling itself out and then when I hit F10 to boost the sound the beats icon is kind of gray but it still lets me control the sound, but I notice that the sound is not as powerful anymore

    This will increase your sound by over double.  I have it installed.
    Using Boom is easy. It works like the volume controls of your Mac to boost the sound; making it a louder, clearer and better sounding experience.

  • Cannot adjust sound without it being too loud

    Hello.
    I've basically had this problem since I upgraded to Windows Vista, and now it's starting to frustrate me quite a bit since going down the 64x bit route...
    I cannot figure out how to get my volumes back to a normal state. When I was on Windows XP, I could have my main volume at about 75, and it would not be too quiet or too loud, but since the ugprade, the speakers are set to 4, and everything has to be jacked down otherwise it is far too loud.
    The sound card is an Audigy 2 ZS.
    This is what my volume mixer panel looks like.

    I have the same problem on my 2011 Macbook Pro.
    I've been using my computer with my lid closed and on external speakers and monitor and bluetooth devices for days on end and I haven't found a solution.
    Has anyone out there found a solution yet?
    This was the only place I found so far with the same exact issue I have.
    I've had some virus trauma in my life, so my mind naturally goes to "VIRUS!" after any little strange thing happens. I'm pretty much imploding at the moment, so, if you guys have anything, let me know.

  • Sound too loud in Built DVD

    Hello. New to Encore and Premeire Pro. Just completed a project in Premeire Pro and burned a DVD using Encore (both CS5). When I play commercial DVDs on my settop player, the sound can be set between 40 - 50 on my receiver. The one I burned nearly blew the speakers. I had to drop the volume down to 8 to make it comperable to the commercial disks. How come it burned so loud? Is there a setting in either Premeire or Encore to control the level for the whole DVD? We made individual adjustments to various parts of the footage in Premeire, so I really don't want to change that. I am hoping there is a setting in Encore to control the level output to the DVD.
    Thank you very much.

    Back in PrPro, you can use the Audio Mixer to adjust the SPL (Levels) of the Master and that will probably be the easiest place to accomplish this.
    One side-note: I find that many Menus' Audio is set far, far too loud on commercial DVD's (and also on non-commercial ones too). Besides the SPL for the overall Audio, do consider any Menu Audio. It should be background only, IMHO, and not something to rattle the rafters.
    Though I use my ears a bit more than the meters, I end up around -6 to -9 dB for the general Audio and about -12dB for any Menu Audio. That is just where I like it. Of course I also hate Audio mixes where the Score (music) and the SFX are at about +3dB and the dialog is at -18dB, but that's 'cause I am old and like to hear the dialog. Also, my my system will reproduce those SFX at monster levels, and my neighbors will complain - closest one is almost 1/4 mile away. The airplane crash scene in Fight Club almost resulted in having the cops called on me, and all I wanted to do was hear the dialog. Just a pet-peeve of mine.
    Good luck,

  • Sound plays too loud

    Sounds embedded in flash movies play too load. The Windows
    gain settings in Master Volume and Wave have to be adjusted all the
    way down and even then some sounds are distorted (as if they are
    being played too loud) even though the sound is low volume.
    It is as if a gain setting is getting set too high by
    default.
    This happens on some XP SP2 computers but not other XP SP2
    computers.
    Might be sound card related. It happens on nVidia nForce2
    MCP-T (latest version of driver).
    I tried embedding wav instead of mp3. I get the same effect
    but at least the wav sound doesn't distort so badly that it can't
    be fixed by turning down the master volume.
    Please let me know if I need to post more information about
    the problem.

    You can reduce the "Wave" Volume to half or below to leave the master volume the same level, that will solve the Volume problem.

    For the scroll sensitive: you can also reduce this in the system preferences, but its is still not the same feel like in OSX.
    Thats how I kind of solved these issues.

  • Too loud fan sound when play WOW

    i have 2.66 intelmac with X1900XT. when i play WOW, the fan runs crazy.

    i have 5 giga ram. thanks in advance...

    i mean what is the exact name. there are some model in ac company.

    looks two model fit to X1900XT model. one is Accelero S1 and the other is Accelero X2.
