6. Sound Settings
Figure 6.1.: The sound settings screen
The sound settings menu offers a selection of sound settings you may change to customise
your listening experience.
6.1. Volume
This setting adjusts the volume of your music. Like most professional audio gear and
many consumer audio products, Rockbox uses a decibel scale where 0 dB is a refer-
ence that indicates the maximum volume that the player can produce without possible
distortion (clipping). All values lower than this reference will be negative and yield a
progressively softer volume. Values higher than 0 dB are available and can be used to
raise the volume more than would otherwise be possible. These volume levels will ordi-
narily lead to distorted sound, but might work nicely for music that has an otherwise low
volume level. The volume can be adjusted from a minimum of -74 dB to a maximum
of +6 dB.
6.2. Bass
This setting emphasises or suppresses the lower (bass) frequencies in the sound. A value
of 0 dB means that bass sounds are unaltered (flat response). The minimum setting is
-24 dB and the maximum is 24 dB.
6.3. Volume Limit
This setting adjusts the maximum volume of your music. The setting is by default set
to the maximum volume which equals to no limit. To set a volume limit, select a volume
from the list and the maximum volume will be limited to the selected value all over the
system.
