Hi Folks
When I first installed OSS,the mixer sliders werent on maximum but just below.Does anyone know what these values would have been for the below soundcard.particularly the mon section? I currently have them at max.
What would be the terminal command be to change these values?

Does osstest play sound?
You may try something like this:
Code: Select all
man ossmix
ossmix mon.out1/2 100.0:100.0
ossmix | grep mon.out1
Re: mixer values
I have no problem with sound,I would just like the volumes at there default

I do not think that there is an ideal "default" which is perfectly suitable for this card.
You may test your soundcard with Risset Bell, or else, and set those mixer values which you need.
Mixer settings are usually here:
/usr/lib/oss/etc/mixer.save
Re: mixer values
Ok
My other soundblaster card defaults at 75 of 100 when first installed,Ill set it similar for my m-audio
Thanks igorzwx

Re: mixer values
You can erase mixer.save file and restart OSS - the values will return to the default.
[Edit: thanks igrozwx. Do "sudo soundoff" and then erase mixer.save. Otherwise OSS will autosave mixer values on shutdown. Then do "sudo soundon"]

You forgot to mention a small detail (which you explained me some months ago):
Code: Select all
man soundoff
By default soundoff will save the current mixer and control panel set‐
tings automatically each time soundoff is executed. The saved settings
will be restored automatically when soundon is executed next time.
This automatic save feature can be disabled by editing
/usr/lib/oss/etc/userdefs and by changing the line containing
"autosave_mixer yes" to "autosave_mixer no". After this the mixer set‐
tings will only be saved when the savemixer command is executed (by
super user).
