Rather low volume of new sound effects

[CorVdK]

Regarding the volume of the new special effects, I do have the impression that the volume is rather low, even at a setting of 200.

Compared to the standard music volume (100), I think a sound effect should be audible above this volume.

So, to be audible, the volume should be adjusted (setting higher than 200). Or the volume of the special sound effect should be at least as loud as the standard music volume (100), with the option of increasing it to 200, as is currently possible with the music.

Greetings,

Hi,

 

I agree the volume of the effects are low.

In any program, whether it’s Premiere Pro or DaVinci Resolve, after adding a sound effect, the main background audio needs to be reduced to 75 percent. If the sound effect is barely audible, you can boost the audio file in Audition or find a similar file online with higher volume. Otherwise, the sound effects will not be heard. In version 11, I reduced the background sound. Yes, some sounds are very quiet.

Me too I agree, the volume is too low, even at a setting of 200% 🤮

I initially applied loudnorm normalization (for all sound files in the library) using the EBU R128 standard with a target level of -16 LUFS. 
loudnorm с I=-16 in FFmpeg.
I noticed a problem - some quiet sounds get to the same level as loud sounds, destroying the natural dynamic range.
Probably I'm wrong and I can try again.
