Multimedia :: Mixer ?



Got most of it working. But cant see a mixer.

Is there a simple mixer tool anywhere ??

XMMS has some built-in volume/mix controls but they are for music playing.

Try doing a dpkg-restore and then installing wmix:

apt-get install wmix


It's a neat little dockapp that appears near the mount.app in the Fluxbox "slit" window. It supports volume control and line input selection for a variety of audio sources.

Good Luck.

My acer laptop has winmodem? so net is a ways off. xmms plays cds and mp3 files but microphone is active. how do i get a mixer. otherwise great system. would also like sound recording and editing, but mixer would be a good next step.
There have been a few calls for a small mixer, one may be added in future releases (I hope).

In the mean time i have installed 'aumix' via apt-get (terminal based).

Ok, so there's a mixer (wmix IIRC, see DSL 0.6.1 screenshot in the lower right corner) in 0.6.1 now, great! But it always gives me "cannot open mixer device /dev/mixer" when started from command line and won't run otherwise. Actually, sound doesn't work at all with this release but it used to work fine (well, with the volume stuck at 7%, that is) with 0.6 though! What's going on here?

Thanks in advance for your help, Marek!
