NAME

       nmixer - An interactive text-based sound-mixer control program

SYNOPSIS

       nmixer [-q] [[-s mixdev=setting] ...]
	      nasmixer [-q] [[-s mixdev=setting] ...]

DESCRIPTION

       NMixer  is  an interactive text-based sound-mixer control program that you can use to set the volume of each supported mixer device of your
       soundcard.  It automagically detects all devices that are supported by your sound hardware, and shows a list  of  scrollbars  for  each	of
       these devices.

       You  can  use the up and down arrow keys (or k and j resp.) to scroll though the list of scrollbars (some do not fit on the screen, but you
       can reach them by simply scrolling down at the bottom of the screen). The left and right arrow keys (or h and l resp.)  change  the  volume
       for the currently highlighted device, and (if you're lucky), you can use home/end/PgUp/PgDn on the numerical keyboard to set left and right
       volume independently. You can also use 0..5 to set the volume to the position indicated by the numbers on top of the screen.

       If a device can be recorded from, red brackets will be displayed under the device's name. If it's selected as recording source, a  red  'X'
       is displayed as well. You can set a recording device with the space bar.

       If  nmixer  is  compiled with NAS (Network Audio System) support and it's called as 'nasmixer', it will show the settings for the NAS mixer
       device.

OPTIONS

       -d device
	      Setst the mixer device to use (default = /dev/mixer) -s mixdev=setting Sets a specific mixer device to the volume specified by  set-
	      ting.  Example: bass=100

       -q     Immediately  quit (after the command-line specified settings are set!). This only makes sense if you use command-line options to set
	      volumes. (currently, the interface is drawn while setting the mixer, and removed afterwards, which might be annoying,  but  it's	in
	      the way of being changed :)
