The GoldWave autogain function works very well in maximizing and leveling gain throughout the audio recording. To effectuate autogain do the following 1. Type ctrl+a to ensure the entire audio file is selected. 2. Type alt+c to launch the effects menu. 3. Type u (without quotes) for the volume menu. 4. Your first choice should be autogain so type Enter to bring up a dialog box. 5. In the autogain dialog box you will find a list of 7 preset options which include adjust to 50 percent, default, ffast gain update, maximize voice with high noise, medium gain update, peak reducer,and slow gain update. Select a preset option with the up and down arrow keys and tab 3 times to preview and listen before making your permanent choice. 6. When satisfied with your autogain preset choice, tab once and hit space on the stop preview button and tab to OK and press the space bar. It may take a few minutes to reprocess the gain level depending on your PC's overall performance and the size of the audio file.

Re: Reading current volume status in goldwave
Good morning Mario and listmembers. Mario, I truly undersstand your need for DB status info as a training tool -- I suspect for a sighted person who is accustomed to relying on sight in lieu of sound. Now it is possible that finding a DB status display could be accomplished with a few lines of code added to Mr. Grimsby's JFW scripts or the scripts of W.E. and the other screen readers. Many GW users will no doubt derive benefit not IF but WHEN this deficiency of access is solved. It will be helpful to have the numeric readings to confirm that autogain and other optimized gain options are working as they should. Have a great day on this 20th celebration of the signing of the Americans With Disabilities Act.

Yes it does, but i see that still you didn't get it what i want. I would like to be able to read the status of the volume, not hear it, but read it with the screen reader. So for example, when i play the file or select part of the file, i'd like to see on what volume is it set, like it play on the 20 db, or 40 db.

Re: Reading current volume status in goldwave
Hi again Mario. I had your exact question in mind in explaining the use of the autogain feature in GW 5.57. I have never seen a db level indicator on the title bar, but I had thought the purpose of the autogain feature was to make the gain level uniform throughout the audio file regardless of the varying sound levels in the recording. If this is true, the need to know db levels is obviated. If not, then I will either have to do some poking around to see if I can find a db level indicator. IN my case, most of the video attributes are set to blank as a preventive remedy to cure a conflict between JAWS and the GW video intercept manager which was causing system tie-ups after about 20 to 25 minutes of normal operation. If any listmember all ready knows how to access a DB level, please chime in!

However, this is not what i was looking for, since i know how to use autogain option. What i would like to do is to get the info about the current db level of the file which i just lounched, so that i could compaire 2 files or 2 parts of the files which i want to make sound the same.

The GoldWave autogain function works very well in maximizing and leveling gain throughout the audio recording. To effectuate autogain do the following 1. Type ctrl+a to ensure the entire audio file is selected. 2. Type alt+c to launch the effects menu. 3. Type u (without quotes) for the volume menu. 4. Your first choice should be autogain so type Enter to bring up a dialog box. 5. In the autogain dialog box you will find a list of 7 preset options which include adjust to 50 percent, default, ffast gain update, maximize voice with high noise, medium gain update, peak reducer,and slow gain update. Select a preset option with the up and down arrow keys and tab 3 times to preview and listen before making your permanent choice. 6. When satisfied with your autogain preset choice, tab once and hit space on the stop preview button and tab to OK and press the space bar. It may take a few minutes to reprocess the gain level depending on your PC's overall performance and the size of the audio file.

Re: Reading current volume status in goldwave
Well, for whatever it's worth, in versions somewhere around 5.25, one could easily read the DB level while recording with Goldwave. I too am no longer able to do this and plan to write to Chris, the author of Goldwave, in an effort to find out specifically what settings need to be changed in order to do so.

Re: Reading current volume status in goldwave
Hi, Don. Thanks for your willingness to advocate for better accessibility for myself and other GW users. It certainly doesn't hurt to be on a first name basis with the program developer. Please do not hesitate to call on me and hopefully others on list for letters of support if you determine or believe they are needed. Here's wishing you the best in this very worthwhile endeavor.
