Mixer controls allow you to select and control playback and recording input sources.

3.3.4.1.Playback source controls

You can individually mute or un-mute as many playback sources as you wish.

Volume sliders set the playback level for each source.

Balance sliders adjust the relative left and right output levels for each stereo source. Balance sliders should normally be left in the center, which is the default position. Right-click any of the balance sliders to center it.

Depending on the number of available playback sources in your PC, the number of horizontal and vertical slider may vary, and a scrollbar may or may not be present. The viewing area on the Mixer Tab displays controls for a maximum of four playback sources at one time. Use the Playback Source Scrollbar (if present) to reveal more source controls. See Figure 14.
