hi bro,

thanks for your effort on custom poi alert..very good.i only want to give feedback on ding dong sound. i normally set my nuvi voice volume to 70%..but custom poi alert (road junction) is too loud and crack my nuvi speaker..so i have to decrease vol to 60%, but cannot hear turn by turn voice guidance clearly. can u make some modification on the ding dong sound?

thanks

The Ding Dong sound and the voice guidance are of different frequency. So even with same volume, you will feel the Ding Dong sound lounder than the voice prompt. My solution for you : go for a hearing test if you can't hear the low volume. Must be too much of loud music thru headphone. Another way is to switch off you car audio.

bro Sauce_Sweet, no need to go for hearing test la. my ear is ok. even if u drop a needle on the floor i still can hear

Bro, it is good to hear that your hearing is perfect. I just wanted to tease you. BTW, I think lowering your car's audio volume may help.
Yes, the Ding Dong sound is annoying but can't be help. It is to alert you just in case you missed it.

i guess the ding dong sound and the voice command need to rearrange the volume level... so who make the sound need to lower the ding dong sound so that its will same volume with the voice command... i can try to help if want to

Sometimes not becos it is loud or not....imagine you driving along highway and listening to your music....sikali...DONG DONG, you scare to death mann......@#$%$$^^&***()&#@#$.....

It serve its purpose : alert you to watch out for something.

It's good when you're sleepy.

Hi bro,

I need the extra loud alerts because I always listen to Dream Theater music in my car with the volume at "16". I have a 12" subwoofer with twin 300-watt amps in my car. My front Recaro seats also resonate at low frequencies at that volume and there ain't no feelin' like it.

Since I also play the 6-string bass like my idol John Myung (and have the exact bass that he endorsed) does, I need to hear the sub-60Hz frequencies or it ain't music to me.

Hence, my voice navigation prompts also match the loudness of my alerts.

(There's a quiet version in some of my cPOIs. Hint: Use the GMXT format instead)
