Hello I'm toying with adding a feature request to provide some sort of gain setting for voicemail when accessed from certain interfaces. Maybe something like voicemail=6.0 (db) within a specific channel section of zapata.conf corresponding to a pstn line. That gets my vote. We experience this

That gets my vote. We experience this low-volume voicemail problem. (and I spent a long time looking for the proposed setting to tweak!) Think about a dynamic sound compressor that would possibly auto-adjust. ___ Asterisk-Users mailing list [EMAIL

Are you suggesting such a thing exists, or that that would be a proposed future application? I propose to think if an AGC / dynamic compressor could be used instead of a config variable. Most sound editors have modules for this. ___ Asterisk-Users

What about a post processor that performs Compression/Normalization on the recorded voice mail file? On the down side I can see this being a big CPU hog if you are handling a huge amount of calls and trying to normalize a 5 minute long voicemail at the same time. On the upside you don't have to

Normalize for Linux can tell you the levels of a wav and can be used to adjust it according. Been toying with using it for some of my streaming media clients since it sucks to go from too low and having to up the volume to very loud. On Mon, 12 Jul 2004 10:31:08 -0400, Seth Remington [EMAIL

Good catch. I've got two pages full of test results for various items and copied values from the wrong page. Regardless, it's still an issue of very low volumes when voicemail involves creation and access from a pstn location. Let's see you have 11.2 db of loss from
