Different volume of individual fragments
In longer text fragments, when sentences are multi-complex or there are many sentences, it happens that the program changes the volume while reading them, which makes part of the generated sound file quieter.
Could you somehow standardize this so that the voice always reads the sentences at the same volume? I'm currently using Linux Mint 22.1, but it was the same with version 22
Hi. Thanks for the report.
In fact, this may paradoxically be a side effect of the "volume normalization" added two versions ago. I wanted to solve the problem of too quiet sound generated by some voices. The volume is normalized independently for each sentence, which may lead to the observed by you effect.
Surely in the next version I can add a settings option to disable volume normalization.
I've just released Speech Note 4.8.0 Beta 1 to flathub-beta channel. New version has "Normalize audio" option that can be disabled.
To enable flathub-beta follow these steps: https://docs.flathub.org/docs/for-users/installation#flathub-beta-repository.
Fixed in new official version 4.8.0.
