Hi All,
I want to manipulate the system loudness (the global volume, or whatever it is called) from within my program. This might seem ridiculous, but I need to do some measurements, so I am interested in not only attenuating the sound via an internal...

One possibility on OSX is to use a terminal command:
#include <cstdlib> system("osascript -e \"set Volume 5\"\n");
(Of course, you may change ' 5 ' to whatever you like; The range seems to be between 0 and about 7.5 (?))
Admittedly, this is not ... .

Hello,
I just bought an MP3 player and a set of big headphones for my grandfather. The idea is that he will listen to audio books. He has bad sight, but he has also bad earing. Because of this, I want the sound to be very loud on the headphones.
I loaded...

I guess you should also consult his GP to check if loud audio with headphones for extended hours.

Is it normal for a computer to lag when sound on a video gets too loud, or when playing music loudly? I have a laptop running vista, 2GB Memory, 512 MB video card, 128 MB integrated sound card. Would upgrading the sound card fix this?
Example of what ...

Magnetic.
The sudden albeit small power drain from a loud sound might be a problem.
Wild guess: the noise is loud enough to make some automatic head parking is external speakers.
That's not normal.

My Macbook's fan is very loud. When running SMB Fan Control, it says that my fan is faster than usual. The sound is a grinding noise. It happens constantly (about every 20 minutes) and the only way to stop it is to turn it off, or put it on sleep. How...

I don't know anything about Macs, but a grinding sound from a fan that happens at regular intervals, that is fixed by resting it sounds very much like heat is expanding a support, causing the fan to hit something else .

A little while ago there was a controversy when the Kindle had the feature to read books out loud. I believe this feature has been removed.
Does any other eBook reader have this feature? I regularly drive for four hours in a day and would love to be able...

I recently find that my CPU fan is getting louder and louder. It is now so loud that I bother to type up a question on it.
The first thing I check is the temperature using Core Temp , it seems that the temperature is OK for Intel Core 2 Duo E8400 ( I ...

If your CPU is that hot, you really should remove the heatsink fan, re-apply some good thermal paste, and re-apply the heatsink... .
Your temps are not 'high' vis-a-vis how high those chips can stand, but they are extremely high compared to 'normal' operation .

Recently my home desktop computer has been reacting a lot more to heat levels. The fan starts maxing out just about any time the CPU is used, and it's very loud. It didn't use to do this - only in the last year or so (it's about 3 or 4 years old). I've...

Remove the old one and take it down to your nearest computer parts shop and get one the same size and rating and with the same plugs to replace it .
The cheapest solution is to buy a new fan.
It sounds like the bearings on your fan have worn .

In any case, I love my insanely high output Modulus and Gibson Les Paul basses. Problem is that I like gigging one of these with a vintage Fender (69 or 74) or Pre-EB 78 Stingray.
Problem is...

It has volume controls for each so you can maintain a consistent level .
The ToneBone BassBone preamp/DI actually was built for this purpose .
I just wouldn't gig them together.
I'm kind of a path of least resistance guy.

I just purchased a new MacBook Pro Unibody 15" (summer 2009). I'm comparing it to a MacBook Pro Unibody 15" (late 2008) model. The speakers on the older one seem to sound louder and more clear to my untrained ear.
Is there any way I can confirm this for...

Apple support knows nothing about any design.
Quality of the newer one is OK, just not loud enough.
