headphones too loud, no audiopara.csv

[pcpc]

hi,

im using a 3.5mm heaphone jack adapter. but pluggin in my inear plugs is impossible because the lowest system sound and wmp sound is even too loud. using another player software would solve the music problem, but system sound and caller voice would still be too loud.
after searching some hours, i tried installing srs wow hd. only with all options down to 10%, loudness was acceptable, but the sound was crap and my hermes did not wake up from sleep.

now i have read about an audiopara.csv file in the windows directory in threads about other htc devices. no infos about the hermes and i cant finde the file (show all files option on in file explorer)

im using crcs latest rom.

any help appreciated.

u should post this in CRC's thread instead of opening a whole new thread dude.

perhaps it is connected with the audio parameters, that serveral roms have cooked in. i don't know. as far as i can tell, its not a specific rom problem.

it could be, allot of us don't use plug in head phones and it could require a driver that we excluded from newer build accidentally.. i wouldn't know.

i don't think its a missing driver.

im still curious if someone knows about the the audioparam file of the hermes. or perhaps someone could explain the audioparameters that can be cooked into a rom. perhaps they can be edited.

it's all registry.. under current user/control panel/notifications.. thats pretty much all i edit.

i didnt findt an option to control anything volume related.

i tried now a rom without "setacustics", still too loud on the last volume bar.
has anyone new ideas?

htc equalizer didnt help either. still too loud with all settings down.

tried nueAudio with an AudioPara.csv file i found in a Titan thread, that i moved into the windows folder. i also set a string ref in HKLM\Drivers\BuiltIn\WaveDev\AcousticFile to that file, as it was missing there too.

when i change all settings way down in nueAudio, after a softreset i still do not find any difference in the audio volume.

im really running out of ideas except an hardware volume control that i plug between the htc adapter and my headset ...

no ideas? anyone?
