    Add volume (gain) while downmixing AC3 to Stereo AAC?

    I have a 6-channel AC3 which I converted/downmixed to 2-channel AAC. However, the volume is too low. And so I'd like to repeat the conversion with adding more volume (gain).

    What do I have to add in order to apply some gain?

    My command line is as follows:

    Code:
    avconv -i input.ac3 -f wav -ac 2 - | neroAacEnc -br 64000 -ignorelength -if - -of output.mp4
    It seems Nero can't do it. So it has to be applied on the fly on the WAV file.

    EDIT:
    I found the answer myself:
    https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/FFmpeg#Volume_gain

    Example:
    Code:
    avconv -i input.ac3 -f wav -ac 2 -vol 1024 - | neroAacEnc -br 64000 -ignorelength -if - -of output.mp4
