1 2 Mixer.app 3 <http://www.fukt.bth.se/~per/mixer/> 4 5 by Per Liden 6 <per@fukt.bth.se> 7 8 9Description 10-------------------------------------------------------------- 11Mixer.app is a mixer utility for Linux/FreeBSD/OpenBSD systems. 12It is designed to be docked in Window Maker. This utility has 13three volume controllers that can be configured to handle any 14sound source, the default sources are master-, cd- and pcm-volume. 15Sound sources can easily be muted and there is also wheel mouse 16support. 17 18 19Hints 20-------------------------------------------------------------- 21Error led: 22 If the led on Mixer.app is red an error message has 23 been printed to stderr and something is not working 24 correctly. If the led is green everything is working ok. 25 26Mute: 27 Right click on a volume controller to mute the sound 28 source. The button will then have a red led in one corner. 29 Right click again to restore the volume. If a muted sound 30 source is modified by another application Mixer.app will 31 automaticaly release its muted state. 32 33Wheel mouse: 34 If you have a wheel mouse (where the wheel is configured as 35 Button4 and Button5) you can control the volume by just moving 36 the mouse over Mixer.app and roll the wheel up and down. Use 37 the command line option -w to specify which slider that should 38 react to the wheel movement. 39 40Label: 41 If you run multiple instances of Mixer.app you might want 42 to be able to tell them apart. This can easily be done 43 by setting a label to each one of them. By using the -l 44 option you can add a little text label at the bottom of 45 the mixer. 46 47Save volume settings: 48 Use the option -s or -S <file> if you want the volume 49 settings to be saved when Mixer.app exits, and then 50 loaded again when Mixer.app is started the next time. 51 When using -s the settings are saved in/loaded from 52 ~/GNUstep/Defaults/Mixer. Use the -S <file> option 53 if you want to use a different file. 54 55Bugs 56-------------------------------------------------------------- 57If you discover any bugs in this software, please send a 58bugreport to per@fukt.bth.se and describe the problem. 59 60 61Special thanks to 62-------------------------------------------------------------- 63David Sauer <davids@iol.cz> 64Theo Schlossnagle <theo@omniti.com> 65Alban Hertroys <dalroi@wit401310.student.utwente.nl> 66 67 68Copyright 69-------------------------------------------------------------- 70Mixer.app is copyright (c) 1998-2002 by Per Liden and is 71licensed through the GNU General Public License.
