[Q] Limited Audio output

Hello,
I just purchased Samsung Galaxy Core DUOS mobile. Everything is great but the audio output is too limited (or controlled).
I love to play with high bass and treble but it controls audio output whenever I increase bass and/or treble.
It looks like there is built-in volume control that controls it. If I decrease both bass and treble than it increased audio but when I increase bass or treble than it decrease audio output. I think this is to protect ears for high volume but I like it. I am always hearing high music on other china mobiles and they are working great.
I tried to increase music by Speaker Boost plugin and also tried Equilizer plugin but nothing changed.
What I want is to disable the automatic controller which is decreasing output audio when I set high bass/treble. Is there any settings?
I am playing my MP3 in default player provided in mobile.
You can wait for the custom roms which will have beats audio which will be a please to the ears.
*PRESS THANKS IF I HAVE HELPED*
Why So Serious?!

[Q] ClearAudio+

Hi, I have a question about the ClearAudio+ setting on the Z3.
I like to have this setting on for the speaker (increased volume mainly + surround), but I don't really like the effect it has on listening to music with headphones.
Is there any way to make this mode only apply for the speakers?
I'd like to not have to change the setting every time I switch between headphone/speaker.
I have S-Force Surround for the speakers but the it's too quiet
i wish to know the same...

Adjust audio L/R balance without root?

I was surprised that a phone advertised for its stereo speakers does not come with an option to adjust L/R balance. My old Samsung and HTC all do.
I would rather not go the Viper4 route since L/R balance is the only option I need from Viper4 and don't want to root just for this. Also I thought Viper4 is for phones with mono-speaker but Oneplus7Pro has stereo speakers so surely audio L/R should be adjustable at higher level?
Some music apps do come with its own L/R balance adjustments but no streaming services does AFAIK (Netflix and Spotify don't). Also no video playing app does either.
Also me
Are you trying to adjust the balance of the built in speakers? If so, it's not going to work since they are different strength drivers and have different frequency ranges

Question Sound dies down when the bass drops.

When playing songs at full volume with outdoor mode on at full volumes the vocals die down when the bass hits, it sounds like a cheap Bluetooth speaker. Anyone else facing the same issue?
Please try it and let me know if the vocals get dim when the base hits.
Try the Song Glass House by MGK or any of the drake songs.
Thank you
Your sure it's not a sound system issue?
If the device performs well with quality headphones it's likely not the cause.
You should be coming out in the 24bit digital realm if possible otherwise it will degrade the sound quality if the source is high fidelity.
Hi.
So I noticed this issue early on and I tried the song you mentioned and have replicated the problem.
Except, I don't think it's a bug. In outdoor mode, the volume is boosted but at that volume the bass would be distorting in these speakers and therefore it lowers the overall sound.
You can replicate this even without outdoor mode on but with bass slider at max in audiowizard. You will get the same problem.
So, it works this way because that's how it's designed. Unfortunately.

Alright thank you, but that's the thing I mean the speakers are good but you cannot use them to their full potential, the front camera is absolutely terrible for video calls, Snapchat is just a blurred face, I mean what's the point of this phone when it cannot get the basics right it overheats but 40C is acceptable. But thank you for confirming, I thought there is some hardware issue with my phone.
I think that's just the audio processing trying to compensate for the bass and prevent speaker over-excursion with soft clipping or dynamic range compression. The speakers are inherently limited in size and as far as I know, the phone doesn't use the entire back or front to improve bass response (like LG's Boombox feature).
You can try to EQ the bass down or disable the DTS processing.

Use Poweramp for complete equalizer control.
It's limiter works flawlessly.
If the phone 24 bit digital output and you use it there should be no issues on the phone side.

Is an Eq app for high range (30-40dB) boost possible?

I have mild to mod hearing loss. I have hearing aids but there are cases where wearing them is not possible or desirable, a key one being when using NC headphones. So to compensate I have searched high & low for an Equalizer app or any other audio amplification category type app that can boost on-board/streaming volume by frequency. Basically it "should" be as simple as an Equalizer app that has the abiity to boost up to say 30-40dB (or more) but the highest I've ever seen is 18dB. Most apps only run 6-10 band to max 10 or 15dB. Even Neutralizer that appears to sort of fit this need can only boost to 10!
There seems to be an abundance of apps that target hearing impaired but they are either hearing aid paired apps & just control the aides or they try to substitute for aides & amplify ambient sound - ie amplify microphone input. One of these Petralex goes to 30dB, which makes me think it is technically possible.
So bottom line is I have to wonder if it is technically just not possible; Android doesn't allow that level/power of amplification or is that there is just not enough perceived need for something along these lines. I could see it as an add for the headphone makes but again - eg: Sony MX headphones companion app has an Eq but only boost to 10dB - meant for taste not hearing loss.
I have a DEV background but have worked in sys admin for 10+ years now - IF it is possible I may entertain the idea of giving it a shot myself even if only for my own use.
