Sound is one of the essential aspects of any mobile phone, whether through wireless or wired headphones, having the best possible sound is the desire of most users. On this occasion, if you have a Xiaomi mobile, we will tell you how you can improve the audio with the sound effects in MIUI.
The sound we perceive when we play something on the phone depends on almost infinite factors, starting from the good health of our ears. But beyond that, there are other parameters of our phone that are essential to improve the sound experience as much as possible.
What influences the sound of our mobile?
As we say there are many factors, but they basically depend on the facilities that the smartphone manufacturer offers us to be able to adjust the sound to our liking. That your mobile is better or worse in the facet of sound is something that can be mitigated with these types of effects. And precisely in MIUI 12 we can access various sound settings, which the Chinese firm describes as ” Sound Effects ” to be able to give that personal touch to the sound of the terminal.
Well, these sound effects are especially indicated to be used with headphones, which is obviously the moment when we can better perceive the quality of the sound, than in the case of the speakers, which in many cases only transmit sound monkey. While in this case the sound is clearly perceived by separate channels. When we launch a phone and we have not customized the sound at all, it is normal that we listen to everything with a somewhat flat profile, which in many settings we identify as “flat” and which is the one that usually comes by default in the equalizers .
In the case of Xiaomi mobiles, thanks to MIUI, we have a large number of parameters to customize to have a sound adapted to our needs and tastes. Even as we are going to be able to verify, we are going to be able to adjust the audio and the volume at our age , since as you know, the older we get, the worse hearing we get. These Xiaomi “sound effects” options offer us to customize different settings.
How are these sound effects activated?
Well, it is quite simple, since it is something that we can manage directly from the settings of our Android phone. For this we must do the following:
- Enter the MIUI settings on your Xiaomi
- Click on “Sound and vibration”
- Swipe the screen until you get to “Sound Effects”
Once inside we have all the options that we are going to see below. These give us the ability to comprehensively control everything related to the sound of the headphones. These will only appear as editable if we connect headphones to our Xiaomi mobile, it does not matter if they are wired or wireless. In the event that they are not connected, they will appear in gray, and we will not be able to do anything with them.
If we connect the headphones, the text of the menus will turn black, and it will then be possible to edit all the parameters that we are going to see below, and that can fully customize the sound experience on our mobile of the Chinese brand. They are welcome adjustments, because not all manufacturers care so much that we can customize the sound of the terminal to our liking.
Adjusts the sound to the headphones
Well, the Chinese firm has been concerned that when we put on headphones we can fully enjoy the sound experience, with or without cables, and even more so if we have any of the brand’s headphones. The first thing these settings offer us is precisely to adapt the sound to the type of headphones we are wearing, so in this option we will be able to choose our headphones from an available list, obviously we are talking about Xiaomi.
In this way the sound adapts to the technology of these headphones to get the most out of it. If we do not have Xiaomi headphones, nothing happens, we can adapt the sound in other different sections, but in this case the section of adapting the sound to the headphones will not be necessary to configure.
Equalizer
This option is one of the best so that the sound of our phone is the best possible, or at least based on our sound tastes. Within this equalizer we will be able to choose ten styles of music available, so that the audio adapts to these genres, in order to get the best of them and thoroughly enjoy the songs of each of the styles.
However, if we click on the predefined setting, we will be able to adjust the entire equalizer, from left to right. In this way we can adapt the sound to a more generic mode, which we like how it sounds and which can be more easily adapted to all the situations in which we are going to hear sound on the phone.
Volume adjustment
This section is one of the most interesting when configuring the sound of our Xiaomi. And it is because normally we do not find it in mobile phones from other manufacturers, in fact it is an adjustment that seems quite successful, because it does not take into account only the type of sound or its quality, but it adds the volume factor so that listening sessions are as healthy as possible, without putting our ears at risk due to excessive volume.
For this we have a setting in which we can adapt the volume to our age , within this setting we can choose between three different age ranges. One of them is up to 30 years old, another from 30 to 60 years old, and finally over 60 years old. In this way, the sound of the phone and especially the volume will adapt to a factor as important as age, which greatly influences how our ears can withstand excessive volume.
Headphone control
Outside of the sound effects themselves, we have other options that will make it easier for us to play music or any other content. This is a series of settings to be able to configure the operation of the control buttons on the headphones.
We can choose if the button on the remote control of the headphones controls the volume level, or controls the music playback.
In addition, if our headphones have several physical remote control buttons, it is possible to configure them individually, we will only have to press them on the headphones, and then configure the actions to be carried out on the phone.
