Hey guys, with my touch hd, i like using my in-ear headphones although they are far too loud when using the music player tab in manilla. how can i put the volume down?
try searching, there's already a thread about this.
as far as i know, that thread suggests using advanced config to set the music player value low. Setting it to 1 still makes it rather loud for a minimum sound level and so this doesnt really solve my problem.
also, with the audio booster enabled, how do i change the overall volume?
the only way ive been doing this is by creating profiles with various changes to the overall db values (ie subtracting and adding 1 from total, 2, 3 etc.) but this is a long process and id have to do it for every config.
any ideas?

This maybe a bit simplistic and you may have tried it, but why don't you take all the frequencies down to -6 in the Audio Booster? This in theory should drop the overall volume by -6db? The other thing I did was buy high impedence earbuds which where 150ohms, but ear buds are not everyones thing. I don't like "in the ear" phones myself. I have some yuin PK1's....they are superb HiFi.
If the music is too loud, you can edit the registry to fix it:
Local_machine\software\HTC\AudioManger_eng\Config\ music_player_volumn
Change the DWORD to 10 or lower and soft-reset the mobile
(Original value is hexadecimal: 64 or Decimal: 100)
You have just decreased the maximum music player volume in TouchFLO3D
Here is another tip.
If you want the phone to remember the last volume used with headphones, so that the next time you plug them in, they will automatically play at that last volume, you can also do this in the registry. The only problem with this particular tip, is that after every soft-reset, you'll have to enter the changes again in the registry.
But here is how to do that:
Local_machine\software\HTC\VolumeOverlay\SavedHand SetVolume
Change DWORD to 0

How about using your Stylus (or finger) to lower at minimum?
Rgds,
huh?
Why would you edit registry etc?
Whats wrong with the up/down volume keys or as stated the volume icon in taskbar?

In some cases, (and I had this problem), even having the volume at just a couple of bars was pretty darn loud. That meant that it didn't give you much room to play around with a decent volume range. Basically, you knew you never needed the volume louder than just a few bars. If you wanted to rock out - it was fine. But if you wanted to listen to music at a soft volume, it was not that easy. If you turned it down a bar or so, it would drop the volume quite a bit and another bar down meant no more volume. Also, the side buttons drop the volume faster than if you use your stylus. So, that meant that using the buttons sometimes dropped the volume from loud to mute in one press. So, I had to take the stylus out every time to carefully lower the volume just a bar or two. And that gets annoying.
So by making the registry adjustment, you are basically setting your desired max volume to be at the top of the bars. Now you have whole range of bars to slowly drop the volume down when you want to listen to softer music.
Not everyone has this problem. I had it with my stock ROM, but once I started using Dutty's ROMs, I never had a problem with it.
I see, 5 mins out of box Dutty's ROM on my HD
This problem went away since i switched over to kwbr's Topix a while ago. It seems to be a result of some headphones having a higher sensitivity to others, so they interpret the same electrical signal into a louder sound, hence why HTC try to eliminate the problem by giving a set of headphones which are known to be the right sensitivity.
also, once i have the volume all the way i have it, how can i change the volume? when using the audio booster, the volume control no longer works

I don't understand your question.
However, when I use the audio booster, I can still use the volume buttons as usual. Do you have anything else installed that could be interfering with it? For example software to map buttons?
I think you should use WMP to play, easier to adjust the volume
Try using one of these:

Works well, microphone and answer button work, and has a volume slider so you can tweak volume as required.
Hello,
I have a problem with the volume sound of my tg, It's too loud when I use an headphone, I can't put it very low, it's always high (not too high but not enough low)
some apps like pocketmusic can disable the syteme volume for a new in app (great but I would want that for all apps if it's possible
thx by advance.
me too

I use Volumex which provides a good level of control. A paid app but not a major outlay...

Anybody know why powerAmp music players volume level is reduced when equalizer preset in changed to 'extreme bass' or 'soft bass'..?
actually I don't like dspmanager that's why am using powerAmp
I use player pro + dsp pack , that's amazing
Sent from my LG-P500 using xda premium
because that's the way it's supposed to be.You can notice that even at your audio system home.If you can turn off the bass and you'll see that sound from other speakers will improve.
Anyways,I use power amp too,in my opinion it's the best.the volume reduces in order to not ruin the sound by adding pledges.You can turn off the limit by pressing limit button and move up the first channel from equalizer bar.Your sound will be very distorted.
Extreme bass and those things are especially for good headphones.It's obviously you can't feel the bass or something on a phone ))

The original P500 earphones suck.
You are using that program to enjoy music with phones or the P500 speaker ?
Am using creative headset..powerAmp is an awesome player which have good equalizers and good looks
Hi.
Are there music player apps for android that have an option in the settings that allows the application to set the volume level independent
of other music player apps?
The idea is that I want to play music in one audio player at a relatively low volume, while playing an audiobook in a different audio player
at a higher volume level.
So far most of the apps I've tried only seem able to access the main volume level that applies to all apps (like BSPlayer and jetAudio).
greetings and thanks in advance for any suggestions, Niek
Did you try PowerAmp ?
I'm not 100% sure the volume control is independant tho.

I didn't try poweramp yet, but I'm interested if someone can confirm whether poweramp indeed has an option for this in the
settings that allows the volume of poweramp to be set independent of the main volume.
Maybe I can find out by installing the trial version...

Given that there are so many volume manager apps, you'd expect there to be at least one that offers the capability to manage
the volume of specific apps, rather than managing the generic 'media volume' that applies to all apps.

I can testify that you can do this with PowerAmp. In the EQ settings it has a preamp slide, which will allow you to make it louder or quieter independent of system volume.

That is indeed a kind of partial solution. jetAudio also has preamp slider and that significantly reduces the volume relative to the volume level
of other audio apps, but it doesn't seem the perfect solution, compared to actually having a regular volume slider that only applies to a specific app, because I think that would allow the volume to be set even lower than the preamp slider allows.
Still, good to know poweramp also has such a preamp slider. I guess it can also be used in combination with reducing all the EQ settings to get the volume down even lower.
I've got a few music videos off Tubemate but the volume levels for each can be quite different.
Is there any program android/Windows that'll normalize the volume levels so there all the same?
Haven't found one myself
