There is a way to modify the setup in Ventrilo such that the application will automatically "normalize" the loudness. It actually works very well (although for some reason it hasn't been normalizing Goose very well thus far!! What does that say about you, Goose? Maybe you are un-normalizable? :D )

Anyway...here is how to do it.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Vent Normalization makes every bodies voice the exact same volume. In essence, you won't blow your ear's out or have difficulty hearing people.

Here's how:

- Go to Setup

- Enable Direct Sound

- Select the SFX Button

- Select Compressor and click Add.

- Under Compressor Properties use the following settings

- Gain = Adjust for how loud you want people to be. (I use 15)

- Attack = 0.01

- Release = Around 500

- Threshold = Around -30

- Ratio = 100

- Pre delay = 4.0
