Default MP3 Sound Enhancer

Hi all..

I have recently copied some mp3's from my computer to my phone, the problem is when I play them on the phone (even at full volume) they are really soft and barely audible. Does anyone have an idea of where I can download some sort of volume enhancer to boost the gain a little on these mp3's?

Cheers

James

Could use something like goldwave (on the PC) to increase the amplitude of the actual wave form in the mp3... but be wary of THD/clipping if you push it too far... if the volume on the phone is inherently low then there's only so much u can do.

Audacity or Sony Soundforge should be able to do it

Audacity is a free tool that will do that. Check the the MP3 is normalised before trying to adjust the volume too much.

But, overall. Phones aren't stereos/hifi's it'll still sound cr@p.
