Marlin - adjusting LCD beeper/buzzer volume/tone

Hi,
I have a prusa i3 rework from china that has a MKS Gen v1.1 controller. I wanted to make some firmware changes so I flashed it with the latest Marlin dev build. I got it all working again fine but the beeper/buzzer on the LCD is now really loud, lower pitch and is longer in duration. Does anyone know where I need to go to adjust these parameters? I have looked everywhere but can't find it.

I used the REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER definition.

Thanks,

Hello. Try looking at this video. I believe it covers setting the tone and duration of the buzzer.

Thanks for the link. Unfortunately he just tells you how to turn it off.

Just figured it out!

I was using

#define LCD_FEEDBACK_FREQUENCY_HZ 1000
#define LCD_FEEDBACK_FREQUENCY_DURATION_MS 1

which is located in the first section of "LCD and SD support" in Configuration.h. When using these lines in there original place it caused the MKS controller to crash. I used the same definitions but moved them under #define REPRAP_DISCOUNT_SMART_CONTROLLER and it works fine. I am not sure why this is the case, doesn't really make sense to me but there you go.

Cheers!
