Volume of songs going up and down, how to stop?

Hello! The volume of songs keep going up and down. I have unticked 'Set the same volume for all tracks'. I've checked to see if theres a setting for this in spotify (doesn't seem to be one?) and I've gone through all the processes and killed off anything sound related. Is this something spotify is doing, and if so, how do i turn it off or what version do i downgrade to? Is this in my head? :( A good example is the song gangnam style, where the high's of the song are now lower than the parts that are supposed to be the low parts... it's like someones constantly fiddling with the volume and it's incredibely distracting, and not something I can do my work to. And I need spotify to shut people out at work... Not related: is there any way to get a true random function? Your "intelligent shuffle" algorithm is lovely but malplaced. As it is, I've written a program that randomly sorts playlists, but its just a work-around. /Guy Edit: I may have solved the sound issue. A Hidden HP program was doing something to the volume. Killing it, and then going to Volume Mixer, settings for speakers, and ticking "Disable system effects" solved it. Why would they even add something like this to the pc.

Ok, glad you have fixed it!

  • Solved: Attention T510 owners: Audio / sound volume goes up and down

    Hi all,
    I am a new owner of a T510, and have discovered the audio goes up and down when listening to music through the speakers, running on battery. I would like to get in contact with other T510 owners, who can test if their unit has the same problem - try this:
    1. Check all the settings in the SmartAudio control panel (using the newest driver) - making sure no EQ is set, nor VOIP settings or anything like that.
    2. Check that no plugin was loaded in the sound control options (I am using Windows 7, 32 bit).
    Now try and play this youtube song, and listen to the volume at around 40 seconds when the lead singer begins - does your audio volume go up and then down again when he stops? If you listen to the complete song, it goes up and down some more times.

    Edit  #1:
    I can unfortunately now add, that the problem is also there when using the AC adapter. It is so **bleep** annoying the volume fluctuates, and it is VERY easy to hear on the above link. Hoping to hear from other T510 users what their findings is. For information I can tell I am using the power plan called "Maximum Performance", in the power manager from Lenovo. The T510 model is a 4349-4JG.

    Edit #2:
    I have now had time to test it some more, using another HDD (didnt want to reinstall windows on my SSD, hehe) - and can hereby say that it seems to be a bug in the audio driver / SmartAudio control panel. Clean Windows 7, 32 bit, has the problems - but when you disable the VOIP function in the Smart Audio control panel, the problem disappears (actually it was just the VOIP function that was active before). If you then try to enable the VOIP function again, the "problem" does not come back (hence the bug comes into action now). After this test, I put my SSD back into the laptop, and tried to mess with the VOIP functions (again, had already tried to mess with it), and it did not do anything (hence the bug is active now). Therefore I reinstalled the audio driver - tried to check if the problem was there, it was. Then I did the same procedure as on the other HDD, tried to disable the VOIP (before I installed anything else and such!), and the problem is now gone. And the result now is that when I try and enable the VOIP function again, the problem does not come back (hence the bug is now active) = me happy
    In short terms:
    The bug can either have the VOIP enabled and you can not disable it, or it can be the other way around - it cant be enabled. To "turn" the bug around, reinstall the audio driver :-)

    Hi,
    Ive been having this problem with my Compaq CQ60-615DX for almost a year now. When im listening to music I can hear the audio going up and down through it. One sec itll be loud and  the next its like the audio being turned down (but the volume bar does not move). I also have SmartAudio with the Conexant High Definition. So, I see that you have figured it out. Ive tried to understand what you said but im not very literate with computers. Could you explain how to stop it step by step? I would appreciate it. Thanks.

    My iPod Touch 4th generation is about a year and a half old. Today it got wet and I dried it off, but now it is turning on and off by itself and the volume is going up and down by itself. What do I do?

    First dry the iPod.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • IPhone 5/Complaints the volume of my voice on calls is garbled and goes up and down.

    I have an iPhone 5 and I've received complaints while on calls that my voice is garbled and the volume of my voice goes up and down as though I've pulled the phone away from my mouth. I had the sleep/wake button replaced by Apple and this is happening since then. I have rebooted the phone several times, to no avail. They also updated my software and battery. Does anyone have any suggestions?

    Thank you. I chatted with an Apple rep and they had me reset the phone and it didn't help. Have an appt at the Apple Store on Monday. I'll post the response here when I know something.

  • Phone is possessed...ringer volume goes up and down on its own etc. etc.

    Recently my iPhone has been doing odd things on it's own, I'll be looking at texts or an app and it'll just close to the home screen or go blank or to the screen for powering down..the ringer volume level goes up and down by itself and sometimes it restarts itself and goes into a restart loop for awhile. It also drops calls and goes to the home screen without even saying call failed.
    I have restored the software since this has been happening and it's still does it.
    What I want to know is if I take it in and can't be fixed if I am still eligible to get a new one, it's less than a year old.
    Thanks.

    You will not get a new one as a replacement under warranty. You will get the same model that you have now.
    You will not be eligible for the upgrade pricing on the new iphone as you have had your current iphone only a year or less.

  • 2008 IMAC Have lines going up and down on my screen. How do I get rid of them?

    I have a 2008 I Mac. I have several lines going up and down on the screen. How do I get rid of them?

    I wish I had a solution (and yours is a fairly recent Mac) but that symptom is similar to those of a failed screen. The repair is often $500-$1000! If you run an external monitor from this iMac, I'd try that to see if the problem goes away. If it is gone, then the screen itself on the iMac has gone bad and you can use an external monitor, they cost about $100 or so. If the lines also show up on an external monitor, then it is likely that your graphics chip has gone bad.
    Another thing to try -- boot into safe mode, as safe mode bypasses some of the more advanced graphics hardware. If the screen is ok, you might be able to use your computer in a lower graphics mode.
    Another thing to do: run the Apple hardware Test DVD that came with your Mac. It may pinpoint the problem immediately.

  • Apple say to me to reset my mac and press command +p+r to reset the battery coz the time of the battery is going up and down. can have some problem if i reset 3 times the computer?  affect something ?

    i worried coz the apple center say to me to reset the computer asn press the coman + p + r and when i reset i no do faster. so the guy say resed again and press all again. so after that. he say reset again the computer. can affect the computer to do that? im worried coz is new =S. happend i call apple coz i think have one problem the battery the time change always example: 1:21 later go up to 7:00 after go down 0:30. why like that? =( they say me finish all the baterry now them charg again. if still like that i need bring apple to see what happend. so i asking u if the guy make me reset the computer 3 times can affect my MBairr??

    It sounds like you are doing this because the remaining charge time on your battery is going up and down.  This is actually very normal.  The remaining time is only an estimate based on how you are using your machine at any given time.  If you're just browsing web pages, it may say 4 hours... but if you launch a processor intensive game, it may immediately jump down to 2.5  hours.  After stopping the game, it may jump back up to 3.5 hours.  It's like a car uses gas, the heavier you push it, the more "fuel" it uses.
    To get a more accurate number, you should view the battery by percentage instead of time.  It will show you the actual percentage (it should not go up and down).

  • The sound on my HP Pavilion dv6 goes up and down randomly on its own

    Whenever I watch a YouTube video or play my iTunes music my sound goes up and down randomly by itself.  It is super annoying.  I just bought this laptop a month ago.  What is going on? Can I fix this or do I need to take it back?

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    ftp://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp57501-58000/sp57966.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load.  Open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, restart the notebook again.
    Has this made any difference to the issue?

  • My Center button on my Ipod 3rd generation is not working? What do i do it still goes up and down just doesnt select anything.

    My Center button on my Ipod 3rd generation is not working? What do i do it still goes up and down just doesnt select anything.

    What I had to was backup my device's data to either iCloud or iTunes. Once it was backed up I erased all of my settings as if my iPad just came out of the box. You set it up again and it will asked you to either start as new, back up from iTunes, or back up from ICloud. If you want to see if everything works you can set up as new, otherwise just pick the choice depending on where you backed up your information. Eventually it will restore all of your information and your iMessage and FaceTime should be working. It worked for me, if you'd like more/better instructions let me know!!

  • Ipod volumes randomly goes up and down

    okay in my ipod i randomly have a problem where i'll be listening to a song and the volume will like control itself, i sware im not touching the ipod when its doing this. it goes either up and down for at least 30 secs before it stops. it happened again today for about the fifth time and was wondering why its doing this.

    I have this problem as well. Just got the iPod video on Thursday, worked for a day, then started doing the volume jumping thing. Then I tried playing the Superman clip from iTunes Store, and it froze it. I tried turning it off, to no avail. Then I tried doing the reset. No luck. I tried restoring on the computer. Locked up my computer hardcore.
    This is my 2nd person iPod, 5th in the family. first to have this sort of issues.
    It's going back, for an exchange. This one's buggy.

  • UNEXPECTED RESET...I'M LISTENING AND ONLY ONE SONG GOES OUT AND STARTS IN DIFFERENT MENU

    UNEXPECTED RESET.
    I'M LISTENING  MY MUSIC . BUT  MY IPOD GOES OUT AND STARTS IN DIFFERENT MENU

    Hello LUISPOLAR11,
    It sounds like your iPod classic is playing one song but then stops and appears to go to a different menu. I would start by resetting it:
    Reset your iPod - Apple Support
    Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears (about 6 to 8 seconds). You might need to repeat this step.
    If you have difficulty resetting your iPod, set it on a flat surface. Make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel. Also, make sure that you are pressing the Menu button toward the outside of the click wheel, and not near the center.
    If the above steps didn't work, try connecting your iPod to a power adapter. Then, plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect your iPod to your computer. Make sure that the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep. Try resetting your iPod while it is connected to power.
    If the issue persits, I would restore your iPod with iTunes and re sync your data to it:
    Restoring iPod to factory settings
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Sound goes up and down occasionally, sometimes it crackles right before

    Sometimes my sound goes low and then comes back up to the normal volume when I am listening to music, watching a show, or watching something on youtube. I'm not sure what is causing it and the online chat person couldn't figure it out. She when into my speaker setup and enabled all the optional speakers (center, subwoofer, rear pair) and then under "full range speakers" she enabled "front left and right" and also "surround speakers" but that didn't help. Any solutions for this?

    Hi Dave,
    Did you upgrade to Win 8.1? Try installing this IDT audio driver for Win 8.1.
    If this driver does not help then temporarily use a two speaker setup and use the headphone jack on the top of your tower instead of the rear audio out jack. Your rear input/output audio jacks may be failing. If this is true you may have to replace the mainboard.
