the sound quality on FaceTime is good except that even set to max volume the sound is too quiet. I don't have this problem on my iPad or iPhone. I have checked all setting and sound options. I have checked all the support answers.
I am on Sonoma 14.4.1, Facebook vers 5 (3080).
How do I get the volume louder ?

Facetime or Facebook? Which one is it?
This may be worth a try: "Background Music" is a free application that lets one set different volumes for different applications. At least as a workaround, it may help.
Do you mean the volume you hear - which will depend on your interlocutors's mic settings - or how other people hear you?
If other people sound too low, you may need to ask them to adjust their mic, or speak closer to the mic.
If the problem is with how other people hear you:
With Facetime running, click the Camera icon on your menu bar.
A little menu opens. At the bottom you should see "Mic Mode". Try different options (I see "standard", "voice isolation" and "wide spectrum").
I am afraid that this may be somewhat beyond your control. Maybe your interlocutors can try changing the "Mic mode" on their side and see if that helps.
It’s the volume I hear. Same peolpe talking to me on skype video for example volume is good. Only FaceTime when the volume I hear is too quiet and it’s the same whoever i talk to on FaceTime. As i say all other apps the volume is ok. Is there some ‘clever’ stuff going on to try to give good ambiance that has the effect of quietening the sound i hear ? If so how do i turn it off ?
thanks
FaceTime. All other apps the volume is good
i don’t think it’s the people calling me, if I move over to my ipad all is ok. ?
but thanks for trying everyone.
