When I chant the name of the Earth Store Boddhisattva or Amitabha Buddha, do I have to chant loudly?

阿弥陀佛自诩:“众生念我佛号一声,可以灭八十亿劫生死之罪,得八十亿劫微妙功德。”
Amitabha vows that "All sentient beings that intone my Buddha epithet will eradicate their crimes of eight billion eons and acquire merits of eight billion eons."
