I was attempting to use Db but that is different depending on where the microphone speaker combination is on the phone. What do I do to accurately and consistently communicate a specific volume that works for everyone on every device with all the different possible numbers of volume adjustment layers?

Shannon, I have a method I use, due to these problems I identified long ago. Quite simply, audio is not standard across devices so I needed a more workable solution. Also, like I reported before long ago, for some reason, the subs always seem to be louder on the right side, I'm not sure why. This has happened across devices, so it isn't just one device being faulty. We talked about this long ago, just wanted to reiterate it, just in case it's related etc.
What I do is, I have a listening device. PC with headphones, or a speaker for example. Then, I have a second device, my phone with a reliable decibel meter app that I've proved can measure your ultrasonic frequencies, then I adjust as necessary to get it to max out at like 70 decibels. Which, according to the ASHA, is the loudest "safe" volume that can be listened to as long as you want without issue. So I be conservative and make sure to ensure the hearing is safe, but have a standardised system now regardless of device. May not be perfect, but it works and is safe.
Maybe you should have a similar guideline, with an app that is accurate in general, but also able to accurately measure ultrasonic, of course. Perhaps someday, you could expand and have an app for IML to get around this. And bundle it with programs, that would be fantastic and would help aid people. Maybe as you like to have specific volume levels, certain "presets" could occur for the programs and be workable and accessible for users to make happen on their end reliably. Maybe instead of just a decibel meter, it could incorporate a media player as well in the app so it's an all-in-one solution. Food for thought. Hopefully it helps.
Also, I did have some results I think on 1511. I think it may be further along than you may think for many. 1600 would be a dream come true. I really think it's worth building now, truthfully. The idea of spending many more months uncovering every last piece of GSF in my life, even everything that has nothing to do with why I came here, instead of building on the possible foundation 1511 gave me is not the path I wish to take. Everyone has different sticking points, and I feel I was closer than I have been before with 1511. I am positive 1600 can get me there. I know you said earlier that it won't take long to make because it's build is already very close to 6G, I guess. It may not take much to finish upgrading it, that makes sense. I'd be so grateful, Shannon, truly. I really think it's the key for me to take that next step.
That said, I wonder what you've been up to lately. We havent heard of a release, I thought you were thinking of what to make next and you seemed to be leaning to OGSF. Just wanted to ask what you've been up to.
Hope all is well and the heavens are manifesting ribeyes! "Manifest Your Perfect RibEye 6G"
