Audio Control 4.234

Audio Control 4.234 offers you an outstanding and very useful audio mixer software which is a replacement for the standard Windows Volume Control. It displays the sound controls of each audio device in a very functional and aesthetic way. Audio Control is fully customizable and especially useful for its ergonomic design and extended functionality, including saving space on the task-bar, making use of otherwise unused space, easy access, improved precision, intuitive interface, idling features, and more.

The Audio Control help system is designed to be as useful as possible. Information is distributed in a tree-structure by topics and sub-topics. Context help is supplied by pressing F1 for control or menu-item that is currently focused/selected or via the context menu by selecting Beneath the Click menu item.

Although the standard Volume Control does the job it is a bit uncomfortable to use. For example it requires the user to move the volume adjustment controls vertically. While this may be intuitively logical it is uncomfortable since the user must lift and move his/her entire hand. In difference Audio Control was made to increase the volume by controlling a horizontal bar, thus the user need to only turn (rotate) his/her wrist, which is the natural movement for the wrist, hence it is comfortable. See the following image of Audio Control

Audio Control supports volume control adjustment via all possible inputs, e.g. mouse, mouse wheel, clicking on the up and down arrows, entering numeric value from the keyboard, hitting the keyboard arrows, Page Up and Down keys, Home and End keys, etc. There are many more advantages that Audio Control offers, for example size, position, accessibility, logic, etc. The images above show the standard Volume Control and Audio Control displaying the same audio card. Audio Control is easily customizable, allowing the user to set his preference for almost every property of the application. For example, the user could easily adjust the appearance ofAudio Control so that it displays only a single audio line as shown below, while all other audio controls and functionality are still there - only one or two mouse clicks away.

Some audio cards expose more than one audio lines. If using the Standard Volume Control one would need to open separate window and juggle these windows individually. Additionally to this inconvenience, to find and open these windows is not immediately obvious and many people do not even suspect the richness of controls which they might have on their system. In differenceAudio Control displays all audio lines in a single window. Using the scroll bars the user can easily reach the precise control it needs. Audio Control is also able to sort the controls by use, alphabetically, value and other properties. For users who use a particular audio line or lines extensively and want to have it/them displayed in a very specific place(s) on the screen, Audio Control offers the Minimal 1 and Minimal 2 view modes. The following snapshot of Audio Control appearances demonstrates this.
