您是否发现即使将音量调到最低,您的耳机或扬声器仍然过大?在媒体播放期间,此问题在所有应用程序和文件中是否一致?(apps and files)或者,它是否特定于单个歌曲或文件(song or file)?我们将重点介绍导致此问题的一些因素,并向您展示如何在智能手机(Android 和 iOS(Android and iOS))和计算机(Windows 和 Mac(Windows and Mac))上将音频输出调节到可接受的音量。
经常暴露在过大的噪音中会损害您的听力。因此,您应该立即在您的设备上运行这些故障排除检查。如果您使用的是外部音频设备(audio device),请断开并重新连接到您的设备。那可以解决问题。否则,请尝试以下建议。
1.调整App的音量设置
有些程序有一个独立的音量控制器(volume controller),它独立于您设备的系统范围的音量设置。例如, Mac(Mac)笔记本电脑和台式机上的音乐应用程序(Music app)有一个专用的音量滑块(volume slider),用于调整一首或所有歌曲的播放音量(playback volume)。
因此,如果即使 Mac 的音量处于最低状态,音频输出似乎也太大声,请移动“音乐”应用(Music app)右上角的音量滑块(volume slider)以根据您的喜好调低音量。
我们应该提到,音乐应用(Music app)有时播放某些歌曲的声音比其他歌曲大。如果您在播放特定歌曲(或专辑)时发现 Mac 在最低设置下的音量太大,请转到内容的设置菜单并确保它没有任何额外的音量效果或调整(volume effect or adjustment)。
按住 Control 键单击“(Control-click)音乐(Music)”中的歌曲,然后在上下文菜单(context menu)中选择“获取信息(Get Info)” 。更好(Better)的是,选择歌曲,然后按Command 键(Command key)( ⌘ ) + I。
或者,选择歌曲,选择菜单栏上的歌曲,(Song)然后选择信息(Info)。
前往选项选项(Options)卡并确保“音量调整”滑块设置为无(None)。您还应该将“均衡器”选项(” option)设置为None。选择确定(OK)以保存更改。
这将消除任何导致歌曲比其他歌曲响亮的音频效果
2.在Android(Android)中禁用绝对音量
“绝对音量(Absolute Volume)”是一项 Android 功能,可统一和同步智能手机和音频设备上的音量控制。(volume control)这意味着增加手机的音量(s volume)也会增加蓝牙耳机或扬声器的(Bluetooth headphone or speaker)音量(volume level)。这是一个很棒的功能,但有时会导致蓝牙(Bluetooth)设备的音量过大,即使您的手机音量(s volume)很低也是如此。
“绝对音量”功能(” feature)默认启用并隐藏在Android 开发人员选项(Android Developer Options)中。禁用该功能将分离设备的音量级别并修复音量问题。试试看是否有帮助。
- 打开设置(Settings)应用程序,然后选择页面底部的关于手机。(About phone)
- 滚动到页面底部并点击(page and tap) 内部版本号(Build number)七次,直到你得到“你现在是开发者了!” 屏幕底部的消息。
- 返回设置菜单(Settings menu),选择系统(System),展开高级(Advanced)部分,然后选择开发人员选项(Developer options)。
- 滚动到“网络”部分并打开禁用绝对音量(Disable absolute volume)。
3.减少iPhone 和 iPad(iPhone and iPad)中的响亮声音(Reduce Loud Sounds)
在iOS 和 iPadOS(iOS and iPadOS)中,有一个“耳机安全”功能,可以分析耳机的音频并降低超过一定分贝水平(decibel level)的响亮声音。将您的 AirPods 或蓝牙(Bluetooth)收听设备连接到您的iPad 或 iPhone(iPad or iPhone),然后按照以下步骤操作。
打开 iPhone 上的设置(Settings)应用程序,选择声音和触感(Sounds & Haptics)(或声音(Sounds)-在iPhone 6S和更早的型号上),选择耳机安全(Headphone Safety),然后打开减少响亮的声音(Reduce Loud Sounds)。
在 iPad 上,前往“设置”(Settings) > “声音(Sounds)” > “减少响亮的声音”(Reduce Loud Sounds),然后打开“减少响亮的声音”(Reduce Loud Sounds)。
接下来要做的是自定义您不希望耳机音量(headphone volume)超出的噪音级别。(noise level)有五个降噪级别:
- 75 分贝:(75 decibels:)如果音频输出(audio output)像吸尘器(vacuum cleaner)一样响亮,您的iPhone 或 iPad(iPhone or iPad)会降低耳机音量(headphone volume)。
- 80 分贝:(80 decibels:)这个噪音水平(noise level)类似于嘈杂的餐厅。如果您的耳机音频输出(headphone audio output)达到或超过此水平,降噪引擎(noise reduction engine)将启动。
- 85 分贝:(85 decibels:)您的设备会降低耳机音量(headphone volume),因此它不会比“城市交通拥堵(city traffic)”(t get)的声音更大。
- 95 分贝:(95 decibels:)这个噪音水平(noise level)的基准是汽车喇叭(car horn)。
- 100 分贝:(100 decibels:)在救护车或紧急警报器的(ambulance or emergency siren)噪音级别(noise level)(100 - 130 分贝之间)聆听声音可能会导致永久性听力损伤(hearing damage)。当您选择此降噪级别(noise reduction level)时,您的耳机音量(headphone volume)不会超过 100 分贝 (100 dB) 。
您可以在听音乐或观看视频时使用听力工具(Hearing tool)检查耳机的噪音水平。(noise level)
转到设置(Settings)>控制中心,然后点击(Control Center)听力(Hearing)旁边的加号图标。这会将听力工具(hearing tool)添加到控制中心(Control Center)以便于访问。
将蓝牙(Bluetooth)耳机连接到iPhone 或 iPad(iPhone or iPad)并播放歌曲。打开控制中心(Control Center),点击听力(Hearing)图标,您会在“耳机音量”仪表的左上角看到噪音。
注意:(Note:) Apple声明iPhone 或 iPad中的(iPhone or iPad)耳机音频(headphone audio)测量在Apple ( AirPods ) 或Beats耳机上最为准确。第三方耳机的噪音水平测量值是根据您的(Noise level)iPhone 或 iPad(iPhone or iPad)的音量估算的。
4. 更新您的耳机固件
许多高端耳机都有固件,可确保它们正常工作。将耳机固件更新到最新版本将修复性能问题和其他触发音量过大的故障。
我们有一个全面的教程,详细介绍了如何更新 AirPods 的固件(how to update the AirPods’ firmware)。如果您使用 Beats 产品,此Apple 支持文档(Apple Support document)包含更新所有Beats耳机和耳机型号的步骤。要更新非 Apple 耳机,请参阅设备的说明手册或访问制造商的网站以获取说明。
5. 运行Windows 音频疑难解答(Windows Audio Troubleshooter)
Windows 设备具有内置的故障排除工具(troubleshooting tool),可诊断和修复与音频相关的问题。音频疑难解答(Audio troubleshooter)将扫描您 PC 的音频服务、音频驱动程序和声音设置,以查找触发音量过大的异常情况。
- 转到设置(Settings)>更新和安全(Update & Security)>疑难解答(Troubleshoot)>其他疑难解答(Additional troubleshooters)>播放音频(Playing Audio),然后选择运行疑难解答(Run the troubleshooter)。
- 选择音量过大的音频设备或耳机,然后选择(device or headphones)下一步(Next)。
- 遵循结果页面中的建议并检查是否可以解决问题。音频(Audio)效果和增强功能也会破坏您设备的音量。您很可能会被重定向到“关闭音效(Turn Off Sound) 和(Effects)增强功能”页面,系统会提示您禁用音效。选择是,打开音频增强(Yes, Open Audio Enhancements)以继续。
- 选择“扬声器(Speakers)属性”窗口中的(Properties)“关闭”(Turn Off)按钮,然后选择“(window and select)确定(OK)”继续。
注意:(Note:)如果您的Windows PC具有专用的“增强”选项卡,请选中禁用所有增强(Disable all enhancements)框并选择确定(OK)以保存更改。
重新启动计算机并检查当您将 PC的音量(s volume)调整到最低设置时音频音量是否降低。(volume level)
6.更新或回滚(Update or Roll Back)您 PC 的音频驱动程序(Audio Driver)
如果您的耳机或 PC 扬声器的音量在禁用音频增强功能后仍然过大,请更新为设备供电的驱动程序。但如果问题是在安装有缺陷的驱动程序(buggy driver)后开始出现的,请将驱动程序回滚到稳定版本(roll back the driver to the stable version)。
- 按Windows 键(Windows key)+ X并选择设备管理器(Device Manager)。
- 展开音频输入和输出(Audio inputs and outputs)类别。
- 右键单击(Right-click)为活动音频设备(耳机、扬声器等)供电的驱动程序,然后选择Properties。
- 前往驱动程序(Driver)选项卡并选择更新驱动程序(Update Driver)。
- 选择自动搜索驱动程序(Search automatically for drivers)并等待设备管理器(Device Manager)在您的PC 和 Internet(PC and internet)上搜索最新的驱动程序版本(driver version)。确保(Make)您的 PC 具有 Wi-Fi 或以太网连接,否则将无法正常工作。
要将设备的音频驱动程序降级到以前的版本,请在驱动程序属性窗口中选择回滚驱动(Roll Back Driver)程序(参见上面的步骤(Step)#4)。如果您尚未更新驱动程序,该选项将显示为灰色。
减少过分响亮的音频
设备重启还可以解决影响(device reboot)耳机或扬声器音量控制(headphone or speaker volume control)的临时系统故障。关闭(Shut)智能手机或计算机(smartphone or computer),重新打开电源,重新连接耳机或扬声器(headphone or speaker),然后尝试调节音量。
如果在最低音量下(volume level)音频输出(audio output)仍然太大声,请更新设备的软件并重试。这将修复与音频相关的错误并更新您 PC 的音频驱动程序——如果有可用的更新。
FIX: Volume Too Loud On Lowest Setting
Do yoυ find that your headphones or speakers are excessively loud even after settіng the volume to the lowest level? Is this issue consistent acrosѕ all aрps and files during media plaуback? Or, is it specific to a single song or file? We’ll highlight some factors responsible for this issue and show you how to regulate audio output to an acceptable volume on your smartphone (Android and iOS) and computer (Windows and Mac).
Constant exposure to excessively loud noise can damage your hearing. So you should run these troubleshooting checks on your device immediately. If you’re using an external audio device, disconnect and reconnect it to your device. That could resolve the problem. Otherwise, try the recommendations below.
1. Adjust the App’s Volume Settings
Some programs have a separate volume controller that’s independent of your device’s system-wide volume settings. The Music app on Mac notebooks and desktops, for example, has a dedicated volume slider for adjusting the playback volume for one or all songs.
So, if audio output seems to be too loud even when your Mac’s volume is on the lowest, move the volume slider in the top-right corner of the Music app to turn down the volume to your preference.
We should mention that the Music app sometimes plays certain songs louder than others. If you notice that your Mac’s volume is too loud on the lowest settings while playing a particular song (or album), head to the content’s settings menu and ensure it doesn’t have any added volume effect or adjustment.
Control-click the song in the Music and select Get Info in the context menu. Better yet, select the song, and press the Command key (⌘) + I.
Alternatively, select the song, select Song on the menu bar, and select Info.
Head to the Options tab and make sure the “volume adjust” slider is set to None. You should also set the “equalizer” option to None. Select OK to save the changes.
That’ll remove any audio effect causing the song(s) to be louder than other songs
2. Disable Absolute Volume in Android
“Absolute Volume” is an Android feature that unifies and syncs the volume control on your smartphone and audio devices. This means that increasing your phone’s volume will also increase the volume level of the Bluetooth headphone or speaker. It’s a brilliant feature but sometimes causes the volume of Bluetooth devices to be unacceptably loud—even when your phone’s volume is low.
The “Absolute Volume” feature is enabled by default and tucked away in the Android Developer Options. Disabling the feature will separate the volume levels of your devices and fix volume issues. Try that and see if it helps.
- Open the Settings app and select About phone at the bottom of the page.
- Scroll to the bottom of the page and tap Build number seven times until you get a “You’re now a developer!” message at the bottom of the screen.
- Return to the Settings menu, select System, expand the Advanced section, and select Developer options.
- Scroll to the “Networking” section and toggle on Disable absolute volume.
3. Reduce Loud Sounds in iPhone and iPad
In iOS and iPadOS, there’s a “Headphone Safety” feature that analyzes your headphone’s audio and reduces loud sounds above a certain decibel level. Connect your AirPods or Bluetooth listening device to your iPad or iPhone and follow the steps below.
Open the Settings app on your iPhone, select Sounds & Haptics (or Sounds—on iPhone 6S and older models), select Headphone Safety, and toggle on Reduce Loud Sounds.
On iPads, go to Settings > Sounds > Reduce Loud Sounds and toggle on Reduce Loud Sounds.
The next thing to do is customize the noise level you don’t want your headphone volume to go beyond. There are five noise reduction levels:
- 75 decibels: Your iPhone or iPad will reduce your headphone volume if the audio output gets as loud as a vacuum cleaner.
- 80 decibels: This noise level is similar to that of a noisy restaurant. The noise reduction engine will swing into action if your headphone audio output hits or exceeds this level.
- 85 decibels: Your device will reduce the headphone volume so it doesn’t get louder than “heavy city traffic.”
- 95 decibels: The benchmark for this noise level is a car horn.
- 100 decibels: Listening to sound at the noise level of an ambulance or emergency siren (between 100 – 130 decibels) can cause permanent hearing damage. Your headphone volume won’t go beyond 100 decibels (100 dB) when you select this noise reduction level.
You can use the Hearing tool to check your headphone’s noise level while listening to music or watching videos.
Go to Settings > Control Center and tap the plus icon next to Hearing. That’ll add the hearing tool to the Control Center for easy access.
Connect your Bluetooth headphones to your iPhone or iPad and play a song. Open the Control Center, tap the Hearing icon, and you’ll see the noise in the top-left corner of the “Headphone Level” meter.
Note: Apple states that headphone audio measurements in iPhone or iPad are most accurate when on Apple (AirPods) or Beats headphones. Noise level measurements on third-party headphones are estimated based on the volume of your iPhone or iPad.
4. Update Your Headphones Firmware
Many high-end headphones have firmware that ensures they’re working correctly. Updating your headphones’ firmware to the latest version will fix performance issues and other glitches triggering the excessively loud volume.
We have a comprehensive tutorial detailing how to update the AirPods’ firmware. If you use Beats products, this Apple Support document has the steps to update all Beats headphones and earphones models. To update non-Apple headphones, refer to the device’s instruction manual or visit the manufacturer’s website for instructions.
5. Run the Windows Audio Troubleshooter
Windows devices have a built-in troubleshooting tool that diagnoses and fixes audio-related issues. The Audio troubleshooter will scan your PC’s audio service, audio drivers, and sound settings for abnormalities triggering the excessively loud volume.
- Go to Settings > Update & Security > Troubleshoot > Additional troubleshooters > Playing Audio and select Run the troubleshooter.
- Select the audio device or headphones whose volume is too loud and select Next.
- Follow the recommendations in the results page and check if that fixes the problem. Audio effects and enhancements can also destabilize your device’s volume. You’ll most likely be redirected to a “Turn Off Sound Effects and Enhancements” page where you’ll be prompted to disable audio effects. Select Yes, Open Audio Enhancements to proceed.
- Select the Turn Off button in the Speakers Properties window and select OK to proceed.
Note: If your Windows PC has a dedicated “Enhancements” tab, check the Disable all enhancements box and select OK to save the changes.
Restart your computer and check if the audio volume level reduces when you adjust your PC’s volume to the lowest setting.
6. Update or Roll Back Your PC’s Audio Driver
If your headphones or PC speakers volume are still too loud even after disabling audio enhancements, update the drivers powering the devices. But if the problem commenced after installing a buggy driver, roll back the driver to the stable version.
- Press the Windows key + X and select Device Manager.
- Expand the Audio inputs and outputs category.
- Right-click the driver powering your active audio device—headphones, speaker, etc.—and select Properties.
- Head to the Driver tab and select Update Driver.
- Select Search automatically for drivers and wait for the Device Manager to search your PC and internet for the latest driver version. Make sure your PC has a Wi-Fi or Ethernet connection or this won’t work.
To downgrade your device’s audio driver to a previous version, select Roll Back Driver in the driver properties window (see Step #4 above). The option will be grayed out if you haven’t updated the driver.
Reduce Excessively Loud Audio
A device reboot can also resolve temporary system glitches affecting your headphone or speaker volume control. Shut down your smartphone or computer, power it back on, reconnect your headphone or speaker, and try adjusting the volume.
If the audio output is still too loud on the lowest volume level, update your device’s software and try again. That will fix audio-related bugs and update your PC’s audio drivers–if an update is available.
