[asterisk-users] LOUD MP3 Hold Music

[Dennis P. Clark]

If MP3s are too loud then their should be an internal function that
modifies all MP3s in the folder to be at one consistent volume
(normalization).  Anybody know of a way to do this?

Here is my musiconhold.conf just in case I missed something.

[classes]
Random => quietmp3:/var/lib/asterisk/mohmp3

I'm certainly not an expert on MOH, but I don't believe there are any
volume control knobs to be tweaked in asterisk itself. You might want to
take a look at the configs/musiconhold.conf.sample file as there were
some parameters that impacted high/med/quiet modes, but I'm thinking
they only applied to the old mpg123 music app. Could easily be wrong.

Best guess... probably have to use something like sox to change the
volume of the mp3 (or whatever) file itself.
