Music settings
Go to Settings > Music to set options for Music, including:
•
Sound Check (to normalize the volume level of your audio content)
•
Equalization (EQ)
Note: EQ affects all sound output, including the headset jack and AirPlay. EQ settings generally
apply only to music played from the Music app.
The Late Night setting, however, applies to all audio output—video as well as music. Late
Night compresses the dynamic range of the audio output, reducing the volume of loud
passages and increasing the volume of quiet passages. You might want to use this setting
when listening to music on an airplane or in some other noisy environment, for example.
