Hello and welcome to another video, today I'm going to show you how to increase the
volume of your headset or headphones if you've got a problem with them, say if they are too
quiet, you might have to have your volume on 100 and it still may not be a sufficient
volume to what you want.
So, I'm going to show you how to sort that today by getting a piece of software called
Equalizer APO.
You want to go to the link in the description and you should have this page in front of
you.
Avoid any of the adverts that may be around the side.
You want to click this download button here and when you click this it should bring you
to another page where your download should start automatically, hopefully it will for
us, there we go.
If it doesn't start automatically, click the direct link there.
So once its downloaded we want to right click and open and it will bring up the... this
page and it will say an "unknown publisher" but you don't want to worry, it should be
all fine, it is all fine if you've clicked the right link, just make sure you do that.
So click yes and it will bring up the setup wizard which you may have seen before, if
you've installed something before.
You want to click next, I agree, this is all the usual stuff and you want to make sure
you remember this location, program files, Equalizer APO.
If its somewhere else then just remember it.
This is specific to me but its most likely going to be the same for you.
And then you want to click next.
Okay, so, now you should have this page in front of you and all you have to do is uncheck
this box, you don't have to but I would recommend doing so as you only need to use this program
once, its not going to be something you keep returning to, so there's no point really creating
the shortcuts.
You then want to click install.
So once its installed you should have this screen here and you need to select your relevant
headset or headphones.
Just make sure its the only one checked and then click close.
And now you'll have this page in front of you, this is quite important, you can either
click reboot now or manually reboot later.
I always choose the manually reboot so I can save anything I've got open or anything else
so I'd recommend manually rebooting later.
And then you can close everything down and restart your computer.
Okay so, by now you should have restarted your computer, if you haven't you can do that
now and once your back on you need to go to the file you saved it in so its local disk
C, program files, Equalizer APO, I guess that's the default but just basically go to wherever
you saved it and this should be what you see, these are all the files inside it, you need
to go into the config folder next and then into the config text document.
In here you have a bit more writing than I do and if that is the case you need to delete
it all, make sure you've got everything deleted so you're starting from a fresh blank screen
and you want to type in what I have on my screen there, however, this -40 dB you want
to change.My headphones are a little too loud, you may have seen that in another video I
did where it was basically the opposite to this video but, so I have to turn mine down
but if you want to turn it up, it's simple, you just press + and then the number.
I'd recommend doing 5, for starters because it might not seem like much but it can have
a decent sized effect just by increasing it by 5.
I would be very cautious because if your headphones are quiet they may not be designed to be that
loud so be cautious...
I'm not responsible for any broken headphones, so I just want to point that out.
So I'd recommend 5-10 but if you really have to go a bit higher then do but be very careful
because they may not be designed to take this much volume.
And that's pretty much it, you just need to then: file and save and you should be fine,
you can go back to this file at any time just by following the video and basically going
back to the same place and then updating it depending on if its been successful or not
and then you just have to leave it and forget about it, it should be fine and I hope its
fixed it . So thanks for watching and stay tuned for more videos similar to this.
