Important: The loudness parameter is only supported for bulbul:v2. It is not available for bulbul:v3.

The loudness parameter controls the volume level of the generated audio.

It is optional — if omitted, the default value 1.0 (normal loudness) is used.

  • Valid range: 0.1 (quietest) to 3.0 (loudest)
  • Values < 1.0 reduce volume; values > 1.0 increase volume.
