    audio fades in rather than play AT FULL VOLUME


    Playback of any audio source via any audio output on the PC yields a fade in of the audio rather than audio playing back at full volume. This happens when I use any of the media players installed on the PC. All of the files have been tested good. My guess this is a setting somewhere that I am unable to find. The behavior is exactly the same, every time I begin playback. The only difference is when I restart playback immediately after stopping playback, the audio does not fade in, but begins playback at the set volume level.

  2. Windows 10 audio fades out

    I'm having an issue with Windows 10 audio: when listening to something/watching a movie the audio automatically fades out and drops to a lower volume. To be clear, the volume indication in Windows doesn't change, i.e. if it was set to 50 at the beginning it'll remain fixed at 50, but it can be heard drastically decreasing.

    If the source is paused and then played back again, the sound will begin playing at the higher volume to fade out again a few seconds later.

    Things I've tried so far - suggested by the many post I read about:

    • Uninstalling/reinstalling both NVIDIA Virtual Audio Device WDM and Realtek drivers
    • Using only one driver at a time
    • Installing older driver versions
    • Installing the driver in compatibility (W8) mode
    • Reinstalling the drivers from the PC manufacturer (Dell)

    None of these worked. Needless to say, it's very frustrating. I must keep the speakers turned off, otherwise notifications will blast out at 100dB unexpectedly whilst listening to music for more than 5 secs will turn the sound into a whisper.

    If someone knows of a solution or had this issue before, I'd be so glad to hear about it.

    Thanks

    Audio play fade in and out

    hi people.

    I recently found that my windows phone sound fades in and out while playing music (or video) in lower volume. I feel like its only playing the part where music gets intense, and other time it just fades into nothing at all.

    Is anyone else experiencing this?

    Add Fade Audio Effects In Video Clips.

    Hi Gustav,

    Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.

    If you are using Microsoft Photos application to fade the audio, then there is no feature in Photos application to fade the audio; however, you can fade the audio by using Microsoft PowerPoint Application. Follow the below steps to fade the audio that you
    want using Microsoft Photos application.

    Step 1: Click on the Start Menu and search for
    Microsoft PowerPoint and hit Enter to launch
    PowerPoint
    application.

    Step 2: Then, click on Insert > Audio > You can add the audio file as well as directly record an audio file.

    Step 3: Click on the Audio and click on
    Playback
    tab beside to Format tab.

    Step 4: Then, you will see the Fade In and
    Fade Out
    options.

    Fade In: Adds a timed fade effect at the beginning of the audio clip. Within the Fade In box, directly enter the exact number of seconds you want the clip to fade in.

    Fade Out: Adds a timed fade effect at the end of the audio clip. Within the Fade Out box, directly enter the exact number of seconds you want the clip to fade out.

    The option for fading the audio in Photos Application is a great idea, so I suggest you to post your feedback for the same in

    Feedback Hub
    .

    Hope it helps.
