Rockbox Car Volume (for the 5g)

<< < (2/2)

Balorn:
Is there a way to have Rockbox "cap" its volume at 0db so it doesn't amplify (and I'm guessing possibly distort/clip) above that? Or failing that, to simply lock the volume at one setting so it doesn't get moved around when I skip to the next song, pause, etc?

Febs:
You can use the pre-cut in the EQ to cut the volume by 6dB.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks!

Are you asking for a method to cap the volume so that one track is not louder than the next/previous?

If so, you want to apply ReplayGain tags (might I suggest Foobar 0.8.3?) and enable the ReplayGain option in RockBox.  EQ pre-cut will limit the maximum volume your ipod will ever accheive, but will not do anything about the differing volume between tracks.

But maybe I missunderstand.

Balorn:
Nah, I know about replaygain, this was more accidentally bumping the volume when I press one of the controls. It's easier to get it to 0dB when 0dB means "just turn it up all the way" as opposed to "up all the way then a few back down".  ;) Febs's answer was exactly what I was looking for.
