Make everyone in Ventrilo the same volume
Oct 30, 2009 Engineering
We’ve all been there. The one asshole in Vent that blasts us with machine-gun like volume. His laughter blows your speakers and his plosives and sibilance are CIA-approved torture techniques. Or the worst case scenario: The unstable audio connection that sends shock waves of static bursts that make you impulsively throw your headphones across the room. He can’t control it because he’s a savage. But that doesn’t mean you have to put up with it! Follow these nine steps and everyone will be the same volume!

If the volume is still too low, increase the Gain in the Compressor Properties. (Some servers have their own audio quality, transmission settings, and effects. Adjust the gain accordingly.)
