Control System Volume using your scrollwheel!

[eldorado99]

I just found this program that lets me use my mouse scrollwheel to control my audio volume and I find it extremely useful, just thought I would share : http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/volumouse.html

Except I use the mousescroll while browsing and playing games all the time. My keyboard has volume buttons on it and my speaker knob is within reach, I'm not that lazy.

Then you should read more carefully, It has options to only do certain functions while pressing other buttons, like shift, right mouse button etc. But if you're not lazy I guess you can not agree with me although I don't allow that very often. I use it because I have a cordless mouse but not keyboard and I like to be able to control the volume without having to get off my couch.

WinAmp already has this but you mean the master volume right?

Actually, you can control any of the volume functions listed in Window's Volume control panel. It even has built-in support for some applications like BSplayer that let you control their volume directly.

I think it's awesome little app. As the OP said, you can setup combinations of buttons if you think you'll mess it up during gaming.
