Mixer
Mixer has two control modes: Volume Control mode (top) and Recording Con-
trol mode (bottom). These modes show and let you use the output (Volume) and
input (Recording) level controls. In addition, Mixer provides controls for output
loudness (Loud), 3D Surround sound effect (3DSnd), and CD drive digital audio
output (Dig-CD). For each input or output signal type, a control slider controls the
loudness, a horizontal slider controls balance between your two speakers, and the
mute button temporarily stops input or output without changing the slider positions.
Controls
Control types and names may vary. The following are some common types:
