Volume output control via menu bar
Feb 13, 2009 Filed in: Mac Hints
PTHVolume2 is a handy application that provides a menu bar-based contoller for your audio output and input. Normally, when you want to switch between say, the headphones plugged into the front panel on your Mac Pro tower or the "line out" port on the rear, you have to launch System Prefs, navigate to the Sound
panel and switch the output settings. Quite a nuisance--especially if you wear studio headphones a lot as I do.
With PTHVolume2 installed you will not only have an easy volume controller on the menu bar, but you will have an individual slider and selection button for each output (see illustration). The app is free, but donations are welcomed by the developers at PTH Consulting.
