Volume2 VS MasterVolumeSync

If you need to quickly switch from X3 to other device (MB + speaker) there is the Volume2 app, since Win11 sound/volume settings are a mess.

If you've ever used digital encoders with Creative products, you may have noticed that it's only possible to adjust the overall volume by changing the volume of the "What U Hear" recording device. While some solutions like Volume2 have been suggested, I struggled to find the right settings in there.

HideVolumeOSD or for even more control Volume²

Volume keys doesn't show a visual response: This is because an update from apple software update for windows. You can disable updates, in my case I've installed Volume2, works great and it has a skin to mimic apple and windows 11 appearance.

You will want to seek out and install a third-party tool like Volume2 to take over system-wide volume slider control and redirect the shortcuts/media keys to adjust the "What U Hear" recording device level instead of your default output device (which should remain unchanged/normal).

Yep I wanted the same thing and was able to do it. I used Volume2 and chose the skin that looks like the default windows volume osd. I also have HideVolumeOSD running like someone else mentioned but I don't think that's actually necessary with Volume2.

Try this: Volume2

Try Volume2, maybe you'll find what you need there. For example, I use the volume control by scrolling the mouse wheel over the tray, with a beautiful indicator, and the percentage of sound is displayed in the tray.

You can access this tool on my GitHub page: https://github.com/nicojeske/MasterVolumeSync

This is best done using MasterVolumeSync.
