Loudness of voice

peacheycoyne · Occasional Visitor Joined: Apr 02, 2006 Posts: 40

I have young Jane and also John Cleese, Jane is fine but Mr John is a little too low in volume. Is there a way of increasing the volume for his voice

yes, unpack with Viftool, normalise the volume in the individual OGG files, and then repack with vifttool. Be careful not to overamplify.

Is that viftool (one T not 2 T's)

I have done a search and I still cant find it (spelt either way). Sorry to jump in but I have the same problem.

Have a look at http://www.ghostwheel.de/viftool/ if you are intending messing with this make sure you have a working back-up of your set-up BEFORE you start - Mike

This may be worth trying as i find the voices a little low.

Experimented a bit more with Viftool. I still get the Windows popup about editing .chk files but I do get some .ogg output. Unfortunately not the 59 that Viftool2 and other posts in forums talk about. Viftool errors talking about .py (?) files and produces anything between 37 & 41 .ogg files.

Got as far as I can on my own so any help would be appreciated.

Cheers
Clive

Download and unzip viftool.new.zip from the link above and unzip to c:\viftool
Copy your data.chk file to c:\viftool i.e data76.chk
Open a dos prompt – Start | Run | and type cmd

Make viftool you working directory type
cd\ [enter]
cd c:\viftool [enter]

To extract the ogg files type
Viftool split data76.chk [enter]

This will extract the 59 ogg files. Cut all the ogg files from the folder and edit with your audio editing software. Paste the modified files back into the working directory c:\viftool. Remove the original data.chk file from c:\viftool

To repack all the ogg files back into a .chk file use the command-
Viftool join 76 data76 john.vif
The “john” and “76” are just examples, use the same as the original
