Hey guys,
I need some PC audio help and I don't really know where to start. I'm not an audio guy so I am hoping to get some input. Running Windows 10.
Issue: my volume level varies considerably from what device I am outputting too. Obviously it varies where the sounds is coming from (web player, youtube, giantbomb, spotify app etc)
- If I am using my generic speakers around 50 on the volume scale is pretty okay. Will be lower or less depending on the source for some videos.
- If I plug in and use my USB headphones, often anything over 8 on the volume scale is way too loud. Usually keep it on 6. This is out of a 0 - 100 scale mind you.
- If I use the built in speaker monitors (don't usually due to quality) about 75 is what I have to put the volume at.
Different games will also cause the volume levels to be all over the place.
So my questions: Is there anyway I can equalize all this or at least make it so I am not having to adjust my volume *all* the time. It actually gets a little annoying and startles my ears a lot depending on what I am using.
Is there a program I can use or something? Do I need to look at different drivers? Any guidance would be really appreciated so I can maybe find some sort of a solution.
I'd rather not buy new equipment but I realize that could be the only option since my speakers and headphones are of the inexpensive variety.
Thanks in advance for your input!
