Just be sure you're raising the correct control on your mixer. It's happened to me that it wasn't the volume that needed raising but rather the PCM setting that did. I don't know if that's your problem but it's worth checking.

Re: how to increase sound volume of a mp3 file
Decompressing mp3 to wav and then recompressing to mp3 can lead to trouble (go to http://www.hydrogenaudio.org/forums/ and do a search for transcoding if you want to learn more), however if your source mp3 file is of high enough bitrate then you may get away without any noticeable decrease in sound quality. The mp3 file is playing back at it's intended volume as recorded - mp3gain will use the replaygain method to adjust the perceived volume upon playback without modifying the mp3's quality. This is the preferred method. Someone else recommended it in this thread: be sure to check all your volume settings including application and system volume. Short of that, opening the mp3 file with Audacity ( http://audacity.sourceforge.net/download/) will let you max out the volume on the file if you really want it louder. Just be aware you are likely to introduce clipping (static, hiss, etc.) by doing this, thus why mp3gain is the recommended solution since it is non-invasive and 100% reversible. HTH.

I use cooledit.

I'm not sure about changing the actual file, but I know that if you use VLC to play mp3 files, you can boost the volume to 200%. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe.
