MIXERCTL.CONF(5)					      BSD File Formats Manual						  MIXERCTL.CONF(5)

NAME

     mixerctl.conf -- audio mixer configuration file

SYNOPSIS

     mixerctl.conf

DESCRIPTION

     The /etc/mixerctl.conf file consists of mixerctl(1) variables to set at boot time.  Each line of mixerctl.conf has the following format:
	   variable=value

     To generate a mixerctl.conf from the current mixer settings, execute:
	   mixerctl -a > /etc/mixerctl.conf

     Set mixerctl to YES in rc.conf(5) to have the variables set at boot time.	Additionally, you can have the settings saved and restored for the
     devices of your choice by listing them in mixerctl_mixers in rc.conf(5).
