Which sound slider controls player at bat Music? The PA Volume or the Music slider?

I want player at bat music to be as loud as possible but I was confused to which slider controls it. Is it the PA Volume slider or the general music slider? Thanks.

In years past it was music. There is a way to edit the files with Audacity to make them louder though. Look in the SOTS section. Otherwise everything else will be blaring.

couldn't you have just tried both to see which one is which?

There is a proper way to increase the volume, because if you simply increase the gain on the MP3 file, it'll be distorted and sound like crap. Here's how to do it in Audacity without any clipping:

You have to first use "normalize", then the "limiter", hit "hard limit", then hit "normalize" again. It'll be loud enough for in-game, but won't be distorted. Rinse and repeat if necessary, although once should do it.

If it's too loud, it's an easy fix, since you won't lose any quality by turning down the gain.

So, as you can see, it is a bit of a process, you just have to ask yourself how bad do you want these sounds? Sure, you can turn up the music volume in-game, and turn down everything else in relation, but then when the default music plays in-game, it's way too loud.
