NAME
Mixer.app

SYNOPSIS
Mixer.app

Hints for Mixer.app

Error led:
If the led on Mixer.app is red an error message has been printed to stderr and something is not working correctly. If the led is green everything is working ok.

Mute:
Right click on a volume controller to mute the sound source. The button will then have a red led in one corner. Right click again to restore the volume. If a muted sound source is modified by another application Mixer.app will automaticaly release its muted state.

Wheel mouse:
If you have a wheel mouse (where the wheel is configured as Button4 and Button5) you can control the volume by just moving the mouse over Mixer.app and roll the wheel up and down. Use the command line option -w to specify which slider that should react to the wheel movement.

Label:
If you run multiple instances of Mixer.app you might want to be able to tell them apart. This can easily be done by setting a label to each one of them. By using the -l option you can add a little text label at the bottom of the mixer.

Save volume settings:
Use the option -s or -S <file> if you want the volume settings to be saved when Mixer.app exits, and then loaded again when Mixer.app is started the next time. When using -s the settings are saved in/loaded from ~/GNUstep/Defaults/Mixer. Use the -S <file> option if you want to use a different file.
