Not sure if this is the right forum and I don't know which one is for this question.
I'm looking for an app that will limit all audio to a certain level.
I think there is a name for this concept in how TVs handel loud commercials, but I don't know what it is.
So I'll be switching between apps like music and instagram and while my music is at a good audio level, instagram will immediately bow my ears out. Is there a way to make all audio coming from my phone not go above a certain level... as well as keep the low levels up to a defined low level so some aren't too low? Hope you can understand what I'm asking.
Thanks for any help!

So when I'm watching movies (I think only movies with AC3 sound) and I'm wearing headphones, the spoken dialog is sooooooooooooooooooooo low to the point that you can barely hear it, so when I go into the sound settings and change the balance to +16 (From 0), it becomes much better but I can only hear the dialog from out of one ear now. Anyone experience this?
Thanks guys!
They should allow control over the down-mix matrix being used. Maybe if enough people email support requesting this they will add it?
I use DSPManager to boost my speaker volume by sliding all the equalizer bars all the way up, and it gives a noticable boost in speaker volume.
My question is, is it safe? Will it blow out the speaker because of the increased volumes?
One of the biggest shortcomings of the X10 is the not so loud speaker, this fixes it, but not sure if it's safe.
Thanks for any help.
can't find it on the market, could you post the link here or pm me to it so i could try it out?
The DSP Manager is a fair safe software. Wolf even included it in some flavors of his amazing ROM and nobody complains about losing the speaker (none that I know of).
I use the DSP Manager whenever I want with no trouble at all.
On the other hand I do think you're right about avoiding excesses. The wisdom teach us to keep the balance and don't misuse equalizers and LED flashes.
In my opinion, the best way to listening music in the X10 is still the earphone.

Watch out it can bite in your hand.

Thanks, but I was thinking more along the lines of the increased volume will be used for the ringer, when the phone rings, because it's really soft right now and I can't hear it from the other side of my house. DSPManager fixes that. I do use headphones for my music. I'm just worried that too much ringing might damage the speaker because of the increased volume that comes thanks to DSPManager.
I've had my TFP for 2 days now, very happy in general about the device. The on thing that does bother me though is the speaker volume. When I play the same youtube video on both my TFP and iPhone 4 (aiming the iPhone speaker away from me just like the TFP speaker is) the volume on the TFP is considerably lower than on the IP4. To be honest, and I am far from deaf, some youtube video's are just impossible to watch because of this low volume. MKV files in bsPlayer or Dice are very low in volume as well.
Is this normal?
edit: Two other q's:
2. Unlocking the device by keyboard using the mouse buttons/unlock key just stopped working, anyone else had this?
3. Is there a keyboard key to get into the Task Switcher/Recent Apps?
I honestly can say that my Prime is lovely and loud, never any issues with volume. Check all your volume levels in Settings > Sound > Volumes, mine are all at max. I assume you've probably already done that though.
Yea everything is set to max. I know there are apps in the store with which you can boost you volume, but im not sure how safe these are for the speaker. Since I don't know anyone with a TFP I have no one to compare my device with. It just seems strange to me that the TFP seems to have lower max volume than my phone.
I am using an app called Volume+. It works great at increasing the sound volume and customizing the bass, mids, treble.
And you are not afraid Volume+ will mess up your speaker forever?

+1 for this app, I've been using it on my nexus s since may and have had no issues. You can set it pretty high before it starts distorting your volume--as long as you don't set the volume to max all the time, it shouldn't do anything to your speakers. Just make sure the max volume isn't distorting anything
Volume+ is the ultimate app to boost volume. My prime sounds very loud n clear now. It works. Checkout the thread on it in themes n apps section.
I've had select youtube videos be lower than others, but the prime's sound is usually pretty loud. Its loud enough to turn to about 85% and it play music in a crowded room and everyone still be able to hear the music (e.g. hotel room party). I haven't used Volume+, but I I just installed it and will use it now.

Make sure to follow the instructions. Best to use thread in themes n apps section as a reference. This also boosts headphone volume also if you check it off. After you installed n set it up, make sure to go into prime settings, then sound, then music fx. Make sure the volume+ one is checked off n press OK. Might have to press OK a couple times if it tries to throw up an error. Whatever you do, don't go trying to Max everything out in volume +. Best to leave sound on "good" quality.
Hello,
Some videos, musics, and radio programs include sections during which the sound suddenly becomes too loud. For example, assume you're listening to a radio program with really quiet vocals. So you would have to increase the volume. But suddenly they start to play some ads or musics with a really loud volume. I need an android app similar to this Windows software that is capable of adjusting the volume dynamically:
trishtech.com/win7/sound_lock_set_maximum_volume_in_windows.php
(Sorry, English is not my native language. I'm just hoping that I could make my point and somebody can help because this is becoming really annoying)
Thank you.
Please someone help me with this! :crying:

Well, maybe my explanation was not clear enough. But I'm pretty sure this webpage has described what I'm looking for very lucidly:
trishtech.com/win7/sound_lock_set_maximum_volume_in_windows.php
It is for Windows though. I'm looking for an alternative for Android.

What you're really looking for is a sound compressor AKA dynamic range compression. This will reduce the range between the loud and quiet sounds so you won't have to adjust the sound constantly when you're switching from quiet vocals to big explosions. Can't say I know any software that does this on Android without rooting, but DSPManager for CM does this.

this device is awesome but there is something that i litterally got annoyed by...
i was using iphone 5s before this phone and it gave sound to headphones like a charm. when you tried to increase the sound it indeed was increasing it
but this phones headphone performance is ****!!! litterally when bass comes in, the sound drops so hard. and when i try to listen a music GAIN is somewhat weird it is good at normal points of the music
then the drop comes and sound gets decreased.. a lot!
how can i fix this
Audio performance of this device is a joke. I hope that it is a software problem and not hardware but i doubt it is...
It is indeed software

After experimenting so much with apps and settings i do now confirm that this issue is caused by the default settings because in "dj" apps after changing gain and messing with eq along with the sound settings the cracking is %99 gone and the sound level increased as it started to hurt my ears (but im using apple headphones)

Are You Using The Equalizer Or 3D Audio?
The device can only reach it's highest audio performance if you have it set to 3D Audio, but sometimes the Equalizer can sound better. Also, what music player are you using?
