Raising The Subwoofer Volume with 2.1 Speakers? (A Good EQ Should Do

Greetings, and happy New Year.
I've been trying to raise the volume of my subwoofer in my 2. speaker set up (2 satelites and a subwoffer). I'm using an Audigy 2 Value card. Now, when I open the Surround Mixer and go to Speaker Settings > Base Management, the subwoofer volume sliders are greyed out; the card doesn't seem to recognize the woofer. However, the woofer works fine with the computer- I can hear (er... feel) it just fine- but I can't seem to adjust the volume on it. How can I set up my sound card so it recognizes my woofer and so I can adjust its volume?
I tried raising the "Bass" slider in the surround mixer, but that also raises the Bass of the satelites, which I DON'T want- I only want the volume of the Bass in the woofer raised.
Many Thanks.
P.S. My subwoofer has a volume control on it, but its maxed out- if I could find an EQ that adjusted the 20-20 HZ range, I'd be in good shape, but I can't seem to. If anyone know of one, let me know. The EQ from the card only goes down to 20HZ, and I need to adjust lower frequencies.Message Edited by VermilionMartyr on 0-0-2006 08:6 PMMessage Edited by VermilionMartyr on 0-0-2006 08:27 PM

Just set the audio to output stereo to full range speakers: go to configuration screen, select "show small/big icons", tap on the "audio" or "sound" icon. In the new screen that pops up, select "speakers" (that conexant device) and click "configure". Click next and you'll see an option to select "full range speakers", and select the front ones. Click next again and save the settings.
In that same audio tab, select preferences of the conexant device. In the new tab that opens, go to the 3D headphone setting and turn it off.
If you wish, you can also turn off the Dolby settings, they don't improve anything.

You can't change this....it's a safety feature. Actually I quite like it: it's much less antisocial since it lets you answer the phone before it annoys too many people......

hi,
What you need to do is go into:
"Settings" then "Tones" and make sure "Incoming Alert" is changed to "Ringing" rather than "Ascending"
I hope this helps.

How to not link the track volume with CC7

I need CC11 to do the notes' expression , CC7 to do the phases' volume.
But every time I move the CC7 rate, the track volume (left hand side, the big slide pan) move as CC7.
I used to use sonar, it doesn't have that problem
How to disable the link between CC7 and the volume slide pan?

Hi,
as far as I know, CC7 is reserved for Volume, and as you used it for another function, you did something extraordinary (even with sonar ) Look what tweakheadz says: http://www.tweakheadz.com/midi_controllers.htm *7 Volume (MSB) If you re-route to Controller 7, your software mixer will mess up*
You have several solutions:
1st: Select the MIDI regions in question, go to the event list and filter it by searching for controller No. 7. Now you can easily select them all together and change them (all together) to another value that Logic likes more (and that fits MIDI standards better...)
2nd: Now comes the really advanced way: Build an environment including a transformer for each and every software instrument, cableing the transformer to the software instruments channelstrip input. Now, in the arrange, you have to re-assign the MIDI tracks to the transformer in the environment. It's more complicated than playing chess against Kasparow, but it will open you unknown fields of possibilities (I've tested it and it works for me, but i really don't need this solution for 99,9% of my music). It's a MIDI wasteland for people who as kids loved to play with do-it-yourself electronic kits and weld their cables themselfes... In short: You have to know some thing about signal flow and how MIDI works. Perhaps it is the philosophers stone for you? Who knows.
Anyway, I'd recommend solution No. 1 because it is easy, quick and it works.

Wanting steady the same volume with songs

Hi,
I have a classic 80g i-pod. I also have a macbook using os x 10.5.4. I have songs from CDs, LPs, cassettes and the radio. The problem is they are all different volumes which have the tendency to change from song to song. I have song check checked in the preferences box but it only seems to work for some songs and not all. Any suggestions would be helpful. At this point I really do not want to go through all the songs individually but If a tedious process is in store I would rather do it now before I finish my cassettes and LPs. currently have over 3100 songs. THANKS in advance. Aqueelah

In itures go to Edit>Preferences>Burning. Select audio cd, and there's a check box that says Use Sound Check. Enable that (it's to make the volume levels the same). Now click on the tab at the top that says Audio. The third optiom is aslo for Sound Check. Make sure that is selected. That sould do it. iTunes will try to equalized the volume when you import a song, and when you burn a cd. Although, it isn't perfect. I always seem to have one song that doesn't work, but the rest do.

Any way to raise the speakerphone volume?

It's so low as is the dialing of a number. The ringer itself is fine when I have an incoming call. The speakerphone is almost inaudible.

If anything covers the speaker (lower left bottom if you are looking at front) it will be muffled greatly.
If you've got a case on it--try it w/o it.
Even when I've had just my fingers half on it--it's been muffled.
Shy of that--you might have a dud speaker...

Tried to restore and update iPhone 3GS, has been in the "verifying restore with apple" stage for an hour. what should i doo?

okay, so lately my iPhone 3GS has been telling me i have no service what so ever for the past two days. But today when i was on the bus going home from school, i had perfect service and everything until i got close to my house (to clarify, i live somewhat far out from the center of town, and my school is right in the middle of town.. didnt know if that would affect anything). So then i asked my Dad about it and he reccomended restoring and updating my phone to see if it helped because im a couple updates behind. So i plugged it in, backed it up, and began to restore and update it. All was well until it got to the "verifying the restore with apple" stage. I was watching the rose bowl and not paying attention while it was on, but remembered that it started that stage at the beginning of the game. Now the game just ended 5 or 10 minutes ago and lasted a goood hour, hour an a half, and its still verifying!! i dont know what to do... HELP!

Did you check the security software settings? iTunes has to be able to contact Apple during the update process: iTunes for Windows: Troubleshooting security software issues

Problems with the side volume buttons

I can no longer control the ringer volume with the side buttons. The buttons will work if the headphones are plugged in. Any ideas?

Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

Subwoofer volume disabled in speaker settings (Sound Blaster Liv

Hello, I have the Sound Blaster Li've! card (CT4780) and Cambridge Soundworks FPS2000 speakers (4. system) on Windows XP Pro SP2. I've installed the latest drivers from Creative Labs.
My problem: very little bass output from my subwoofer, even when I adjust the subwoofer dial to max. If I go to Speaker Settings in AudioHQ(?), the sliders for the subwoofer volume is disabled. How do I enable this?
What are the correct speaker to sound card connections? My speaker system only has left and right jacks, and a SPDF(?) digital jack, but my sound card doesn't have the SPDF output. I connect my left/right jacks to the appropriate line out/rear out jacks on the sound card. I can hear sounds from all speakers, but would just like to have the subwoofer output more sound.
The AudioHQ will only let me select a 4 speaker system type, and there is no 4. option selected. Maybe this is the problem? If not, then how do I enable the subwoofer volume slider in speaker settings of AudioHQ?
Thanks,
Jon.

The Li've! Value is a 4.0 soundcard and doesn't have a dedicated subwoofer output. It can only dri've Front L/R and Rear L/R. The 4. speaker system generates its own subwoofer signal by extracting the bass from these channels.
Bass redirection, crossover frequency, AC-3 decode are only available on the Li've!5. SB0060 and don't apply to yer soundcard. AC-3 decode on the card would be nice, but Creative pays Dolby a licensing fee for every soundcard to support the feature and your card was sold before they struck their deal with Dolby so all previously sold cards don't support it.
Bass redirection and the crossover frequency is to send the bass from the front L/R, Rear L/R and Centre channels to the subwoofer. Since the Li've! models before the Li've!5. didn't have a subwoofer channel either none of this applies to yer card.
The centre channel volume is also missing because your card doesn't have a centre/sub output.
The only reason these features show up in yer drivers and applications is because all the Li've! and Li've 5. ( but not the Li've! 24 bit/7. ) models use the same driver.
To fix yer bass issue, try adjusting the subwoofer level on the speakers and alternati'vely increase the bass level in the Creative Mixer applet.Message Edited by nvidiot on 02-07-2006 09:29 PMMessage Edited by nvidiot on 02-07-2006 09:42 PM

Models with Built in Speakers

It seems that the only iPod with built in speakers is the iPod Touch. Is this correct?

If you want a speaker you either have to go for the iPod touch (all generations except the 1st gen) or the 5th generation iPod nano. (only the 5th gen includes a speaker - this model was sold from 2009 - 2010.)

How do I control itunes volume with my Apple Remote?

Hey,
I have been using the Apple remote for a while now, but recently i have got a airplay device, for which the volume from the mac can be controlled only by the itunes volume slider and not the mac volume.
can someone please guide as to how i can change the itunes volume with the remote?

I don't know how to do it with the actual silver Apple Remote. However with the Remote app on you phone then the volume control is at the bottom just like normal. When you use the Airplay symbol to send the content to the airplay device say Apple TV you can use the volume slider to control the volume.

Increasing sound volume with amixer

Hi,
I know, I can set the sound volume with something like this:
> amixer set Master 10
But is it also possible to relattivly set the sound? Can I somehow in example increase the volume by 10%?
I want to set keyboard shortcuts for turning volume up and down!
Thanks!
Nathan

Read "man amixer":
set or sset <SCONTROL> <PARAMETER> ...
Sets the simple mixer control contents. The parameter can be the
volume either as a percentage from 0% to 100% with % suffix, a
dB gain with dB suffix (like -12.5dB), or an exact hardware
value. The dB gain can be used only for the mixer elements with
available dB information. When plus(+) or minus(-) letter is
appended after volume value, the volume is incremented or decre-
mented from the current value, respectively.
For keyboard shortcuts, use e.g. xbindkeys or xhotkeys or keytouch.

Subwoofer Problem with Audigy Pla

I recently bought a Speedlink Medusa 5. Headset, which is connected to the soundcard through 3 analog wires. Now the front- /rear- and centerspeaker are working fine, but I can't seem to get the subwoofer working with _any_ driver supplied by Creative for the Soundblaster Audigy Player. The headset itself should be ok, as it works perfectly (=> including subwoofer) with the kX drivers (after enabling "Use Subwoofer Output" and "Bass Redirection") and on the fly with the onboard soundcard of my mobo (CMI976).
I tried to enable "Bass Redirection" in the (latest) Surround Mixer app, but the setting doesn't seem to have any effect on the functionality of the subwoofer. The only effect I got was less bass when I set the frequency higher, so at least the splitting works.
Using kX is not an option, because it doesn't support EAX and AC3 decoding is still buggy. With the onboard solution I can't connect my TV card, plus it eats a lot of cpu time.
Now, do I have to buy a new soundcard for the functionality I paid about 75. for years ago?

i MUST REMOVE THE AUDIGY 4 to play the games and sent to third world as present...
Anyone can support me?
I think it's the TRUST 800 DV PCI KIT fireware 400/800 that goes in conflict with Audigy..MAYBE (but i need it for hd fw)? Anyhelp?
