Volume problem - anon

Posted: May 01, 2013

Can anyone offer a suggestion? Recently, I am unable to hear the dictation on some reports. I have the volume all the way turned up, by using Ctrl +, and still cannot hear some reports clearly. Makes work a little more difficult.

After turning it all the way up, the next report will blast my ears out. Too funny.

TIA.

I purchased an inexpensive pair of computer speakers (at WalMart, Staples, etc.) that have a headphone jack and volume control. I plug them into the computer headphone jack and turn up the computer sound control all the way. The speakers act as amplifiers and I can control the volume with the speaker volume control for more sound; otherwise I use the CTRL++ or CTRL+- to control the sound. Normally listen at about 15. There are still some reports I peg everything to max and still can't hear.

I would sit at my desk yelling, I am going DEAF or what? My son thought I was ridiculous. I realized the company was ridiculous for not giving us proper tools to work with, bare minimum, such as SOUND. Seriously. So sorry for your troubles. I have been there and gave up.

I always seem to have issues with being able to get the audio up to a comfortable volume on the Bayscribe platform. I don't think it's an issue with my computer, as my other platforms have volumes that are just fine. Is there a volume booster somewhere on Bayscribe besides the obvious up and down button on the audio player that I'm overlooking? I have all the settings up to maximum on my computer as well as having the audio player volume all the way up to no avail. TIA t ...

My Emdat voice quality has been very low recently. Unfortunately my ear phone cord broke and I ordered new earphones but it's just a whisper. I've increased the volume button on Emdat, but wondered if there is a way to increase the volume otherwise. I've done everything on my computer to make the volume loud but it doesn't work. I just ordered a new 2nd set of earphones along with a volume increase thing from Amazon and was so excited to get it in today.&nb ...

Is there anything at all I can do to increase the dictation sound volume when I get these whisperers or people using cell phones, etc, and I can hardly hear them? I guess some of them are just sitting too far away from the dictating equipment, but they are never going to change. They are always going to be barely audible. Is there anything I can do or buy to amplify the sound with these dictators? I already have my computer and speakers set on the highest volume. I' ...

Does anyone who works for CommandHealth (Transform/MD-IT) know how the VRE volume bonus works?

It appears like it's only half of what it should be. ...

Did anyone else receive an email from BR this morning stating we are to let her know if we are seeing an increased amount of work as she made changes to the settings so we'll receive more? They added this to our POD a week or two ago w/o letting us know and sent an email out after the fact. Nice to know they've added more work to our POD when we can't even clear out the work we're already getting... Thank you. ...

I read on this website some time ago and there was talk about a piece of hardware you could connect to your computer that would boost the volume and I think it was called "boost or booster." If anyone knows of this device I would love to get one. Anyone remember what it was called or where I can get one? Any help would be greatly appreciated! ...

Has anyone experienced a problem with their keyboard today while typing reports in Fluency. When I hit the Control + key while in the body of my report (to increase the volume) it is also changing my font size to larger. When I hit Control - key (to lower volume) it shrinks my font size. I am talking about the number keypad to the far right of the keyboard. Thanks. ...

Can someone tell me how to change the volume of a dictation using the keyboard? I find that I almost have to change the volume with each dictation - one is too loud and the next one is too soft. I'm sure I must change the volume 20 times a day using my speaker button. Is there any way to do this using the keyboard? Thanks in advance! ...

I have a Boostaroo and it muffles the audio when I turn it up on my headset. Some of these dictators go back and forth in volume and I have caught several mistakes I made on deciding what I hear. This simple Windows function might help some of you, I noticed a small difference right away. I am also looking into an app to download as I don't have room for a set of speakers up on my work area to plug headset into. I am going to research more on this with l ...

Once again, we aren't allowed to work on my account due to low volume. This is about the fifth time in the past week. I've only been with Landmark for 6 or 7 months and I'm really starting to regret taking a position there. It was great for the first few months, but then the work started disappearing. Lucikly, I have a second interview next week with another company. If I get hired, I'll probably just keep Landmark as a side job, because that's really all it� ...
