Help!: How to make a video's audio louder?

[AriaValentine]

I posted a video the other day only to find out that the audio was way WAY too low. Since it's already compressed, is there a way to edit it without messing up the whole video? Please and thanks!

What editing software are you using?

In your editing program, you might be able to raise the volume of the video. Could be like a bar next to the audio track that lets you control it. Might look like this:

This! but @AriaValentine just as a general tip I'd use Audacity or something similar to record your voice seperate so you can edit it independently!

I did! That's what's so strange. I used audacity to record, but maybe it wasn't loud enough then?
I use basic Windows Movie Maker, but it takes forever to prepare the video.

Thanks for your inputs!

I would recommend getting a better editing program, to be honest. Windows Movie Maker just doesn't cut it, it makes things extremely hard to do. I'm speaking from experience xD
