Hi !

I hope someone could help me out.

I've got a isub using 10.2.2 .

since 10.1.x OSX supports my isub connected to my cube, and since 10.2 you could also control the volumelevel via the Sound -> SoundOutput Preferences ...

But it's very "time-consuming" to change the volume via the Soundpreferences if you listen to various musicstyles and want to change the level more often.

so i wonder if its possible to write a little Menubar-Volumecontrol for isub-Volumelevel , like the one which is included by apple for the "normal" Volumelevel !?

sadly im not a programmer and i hope to get some help here ;-)

things i found out :

kAudioDevicePropertySubVolumeDecibles - is for the isub Volumecontrol

and

kAudioDevicePropertySubMute - is for Muting the isub


But i have really no idea where to use this ;-)



Thanx in advance for all replys ..


Bye, Markus23

Unfortunately, if someone does this it'll have to be an application, not one of the apple-like MenuExtras. They got rid of user-definable ones and now apps like ASM no longer work (10.2). It'll still be in the menubar, but it won't have the funky moving-around functionality that real MenuExtras have.

Ok, that's maybe true , but my "problem" is to get a tool to change the volume , wether its an application in the menubar , or a menu.extra ..

Have you checked to see if the Sound Prefs support AppleScript? If so you can either write a script to go in the script menu (which you can download from apple if you haven't already), or you could make a docklet to send apple events.

Hey , good idea - i will check it at once :-)

thx...


... just checked it - but Apple Script won't open SoundPrefs.pane for Applescript commands , so i think SoundPrefs.pane will not support AppleScript ..

But it was worth a try :-)
