Does this mean extension-detection of header-detection?

Uh, I really ment unix pipes. I am doing a project to produce
synthesized speech for a streaming application (mp3 streaming).
Problem is that the volume is about 4 times to silent, so
I thought about using ecasound to correct this.
Currently, I am doing something like:
#!/bin/sh
cat $1 |\
festival_client --otype raw --ttw |\
#ecasound -f:s16,1ch,16000 -i stdin -ea:350 -f:s16,1ch,16000 -o stdout |\
lame -r -x -s 16 -m m - $2
I think I can do aproximate -ea because it is
alwqays above factor 400, but the version above (comment removed)
sounds horrible. I wonder what I do wrong.
