iPod Classic: Games & Sound Check
[360 byte] By [zero hectic] at [2007-11-11 20:55:48] 
Has anyone else noticed that if you begin to play a game on the iPod Classic while listening to music, SoundCheck becomes disabled? I swear I almost jumped out of my subway seat when I started up Vortex and the song volume leapt. The moment I kicked out of Vortex, soundcheck seems to have re-engaged. It's repeatable and also apparent in the other games.

Yes, and it's not only the Classic. It's always worked that way, ever since there were games available. I have lots of games on my 5G 60. I learned to turn the volume down before starting up a game, because the sound check goes away. Not a big deal after the innitial shock.Mawdryn at 2007-11-15 12:11:12 >

Really? I never noticed that while playing Solitaire on my 5.5G. Huh. Thanks for the heads up.zero hectic at 2007-11-15 12:12:23 >

It's better not to use Sound Check anyway, it really ruins the sound quality.Better bet is to pump up songs that are too quiet a little bit with the gain setting.

yeah i noticed that. I put sound check on, to keep the loudness consisent, but i kept switching back and forth, and the songs didn't sound as great with the sound check, idk why. My main problem was, a couple of songs on my playlist were extremly loud, but i figured out you can change that on itunes.

I used iVolume to normalize all my songs a while back, which actually works in tandem with soundcheck. I feel like I've had great results.zero hectic at 2007-11-15 12:15:18 >
