Wss Properties Page - M-Audio Dman PCI Manual

Mute is selected, it will completely override the volume and balance settings
for that channel. When Mute is not active, the volume and balance settings are
restored.
NOTE: When the drivers are first installed, the Daughterboard and CD-
ROM channels of the mixer are muted by default. This is to prevent any
excess noise from entering the DMAN PCI if either or both of those devices
are not installed/connected. If you install either device, make sure you
unmute them in the mixer or you will not hear them.
IMPORTANT: The inside of the computer is a very noisy place and noise
from other computer components may leak into any audio sound card. For
best signal-to-noise performance, mute or turn down the playback volume
levels of any devices not currently in use. Multimedia-grade CD-ROM dri-
ves are notoriously noisy and so are inputs that have nothing connected to
them (such as an unused daughterboard connector or Line In). We recom-
mend muting each of these when not being used.

mixer will be displayed.
3. "Show the following volume controls." This lets you select which audio
