Amplification (dB)

 * Input Box: Type a value for the amount of amplification you would like to apply. Positive values make the sound louder, negative values make it quieter. As you type, the New Peak Amplitude input box will be updated.
 * Slider: Drag the slider right to make the sound louder, or to the left to make it quieter. As you drag, your selected value will be updated in the input box, and the New Peak Amplitude input box will be updated.

New Peak Amplitude (dB)
Type in the value you would like for the new peak amplitude of your track. As you type, the Amplification input box will be updated.

Allow Clipping
If this box is not checked, and you attempt to enter an Amplification value that will result in a New Peak Amplitude of greater than 0 dB, the OK button will become inactive. This will prevent you from applying too much amplification. If this box is checked you can apply as much amplification as you want, possibly creating a horribly distorted sound.

The buttons
Clicking on the command buttons give the following results:
 * gives a dropdown menu enabling you to manage presets for the tool and to see some detail about the tool. For details see Manage presets.
 * plays a short preview of what the audio would sound like if the effect is applied with the current settings, without making actual changes to the audio. The length of preview is determined by your setting in, the default setting setting is 6 seconds.
 * applies the effect to the selected audio with the current effect settings.
 * aborts the effect and leaves the audio unchanged.
