Remix your wav/mp3 files with a lower volume :)

Hi,

MoH volume is uncomfortably high and I want to bring it down. Its mpg123.
How can I do it?

  There are some settings in musiconhold.conf that may yield the desired
effect:

[default]
mode=mp3
directory=/var/lib/asterisk/moh

; valid mode options:
; quietmp3  -- default
; mp3   -- loud
; mp3nb -- unbuffered
; quietmp3nb-- quiet unbuffered
; custom-- run a custom application
; files -- read files from a directory in any Asterisk supported 
format


  If not, it may come down to adjusting the base amplitude of the entire 
track down.  I don't think there's a way to modify the gain specifically

for MOH.

Here the problem is that it is streaming audio from the Internet and I can't
lower its volume.

Please provide us with your config in musiconhold.conf so I/we can see how
you are streaming.   There may be a way to lower the volume, but it depends
on how you are performing the streaming.

Is there a way to do it for voice mail messages? I have a user who has
trouble hearing the voice messages, saying they are too quiet.

  From a cursory glance at the voicemail settings, I can't see a way.
The voicemail messages are stored in a fairly coherent directory structure 
and it may be possible to develop some sort of process that funnels the

voicemail recordings through a volume-boosting 'sox' transformation or
similar, specifically for that user, but other than that I can't think of
anything off the top of my head.

  Volume issues tend to have to do with the phone the user is using as
often as not.  The user might benefit from a phone with decent volume
controls/output gain boosting.

Just one user?  Sounds like a user problem... however, with that said, you
can try increasing your zaptel volumes.

Well, we've already cranked the hell out of his phone. He says that
phone conversations are at a reasonable volume now, but it's the
voicemail that's a problem. I guess we'd have to tweak the gain on the
TDM card.

(The user is in a rock band. :) )
