How to make a special shortcut to sndvol32 "Wave In"?

J

John Doe

I would like to make a shortcut placed on the desktop, to volume
control "Wave In" for my USB microphone. I suppose there is some
special command line using sndvol32. Anybody know what that might be?
An example would help, if anybody knows. Thanks.

lists the only two cmd-line switches for sndvol32.exe

Got it, thanks.
The shortcut property looks something like this.
C:\WINDOWS\system32\sndvol32.exe -R -D 6994AD04-93EF-11D0-A3CC-00A0C9223196
The long hyphenated number is the device identifier.

Thanks for the feedback.

Ctrl + S or
sndvol32 /s

Toggles the Volume applet between small and normal mode. Small mode can also
be specified with the /s command line switch,

That is neat, but not mentioned in that msdn page, and none of this is in
the help file, and there seems to be no 'help switch' either.

'.' mentioned a '/s' switch in a separate followup. You also have;

SndVol32.exe /t

Giving the popup from the Notification Area.
Just seemed like a little tidbit appropriate to post here.
