Volumouse - the most convenient way to adjust the volume in Windows

I have more than 3 years using the program "Volumouse" on all of their computers, and adjusts the volume with the mouse wheel clamping with its left button. Another way, it gives me discomfort - it is more convenient than using a special multimedia buttons on keyboard, because the mouse is always in his hand, and the buttons on the keyboard or buttons in the software interfaces necessary "Pull".

«Volumouse» - a small program that allows you to conveniently and easily adjust the volume on your Windows-based computer - simply twisting the mouse wheel. Despite the small size of the program and it occupies RAM, everything is very flexibly configurable.

The default interface is in English, but if you need a Russian, then copy the file volumouse_lng.ini in the installation folder.

Possible to set up to 12 different rules that determine how and when it will be used the mouse wheel to adjust the volume. The default rules included 2 when the Alt key is pressed and when the left mouse button. You can easily set up rules for themselves.

Description of the basic rules of the volume

Each rule contains four basic fields:

1. "Use the wheel when:" - a condition in which the rule works. For example, if you select the "Shift key pressed", the rule will only work when the "Shift" key is pressed. You can also disable the rule by selecting "locked" in this field.
2. "Component:" Determines how audio component (headphones, speakers, microphone, etc.) controls generally. "The total volume of the system" - a component that is enabled by default and is used most often.
3. "Channels:" By default, is switched on and the most common option is "All channels" is used. This means that the volume of both channels (e.g., left and right) varies identically. But if you have a need to adjust the channels individually, you can easily do it. Also available off / on channel option entirely.
4. "Steps:" - the number of steps, according to which the volume will be adjusted in one motion mouse wheel. Those. if you increase this value, the volume will be adjusted quickly. I set myself this value - "3000".

In addition, there are additional settings - click "More ..." in the respective rules.

Optional settings Rules

"Includes the right after" - you can specify after how many mouse wheel rotations to include a rule.
"Left / Right Balance" - allows you to control the left and right channel balance. For example, if you want that the left channel is always 50% quieter than the right, set right "1.0", the left - "0.5"

The on-screen display

The program allows you to display the on-screen display when you change the volume level. You can set it in the advanced settings for each rule.

"Type:" You can set the vertical, horizontal map display or turn it off altogether.
"Size:" You can set the size in pixels
"Delayed:" The number of milliseconds after the volume control when the progress is shown.
"Position:" The horizontal and vertical position of the indicator. By default, it is displayed near the mouse cursor.
"Transparency:" Allows you to adjust the transparency of the indicator

Adjusting the transparency of windows and screen brightness

In order to use this feature, create a new rule with a component of "transparency window" or "brightness of the screen." For example, you can do so that would be when clamping the right mouse wheel button changes the transparency of the window over which the cursor is located or brightness.

Of course, most of these heaped functions are not needed - but the basic function of "volume control wheel mouse" will be useful to all people.
