Hello Everyone, Am I the only person who finds the headset knob in the audio settings difficult to adjust. Most of the time I'm really not sure if I am making it louder or lower-- and in general that tiny knob seems difficult for me, at least, to grab and adjust. I also find the knob very difficult to adjust precisely -- when I want to fine tune to a very specific level what I hear in my headsets. I think a slider would be more intuitive. I suggest a very simple slider instead of the knob. Per the attached mockup. I purposely made the simple slider much larger than the headset icon in order to give the slider more grandular control. Thanks! Rowby rowby attached the following image(s): simple slider.jpg (64kb) downloaded 1 time(s).You cannot view/download attachments. Try to login or register.

Just to clarify, the knob currently functions as a slider. So you should just click and drag up and down to control the level. It may be counter-intuitive but it should function that way.

Thanks, Cpilcher
I see now what you mean. In any case, I think a simple slider would be better than the knob..
Then the function would be instantly clear to everyone -- new, old and volunteer users.

I would say that knobs are pretty common in software audio tools.

I don't have a problem with the knob either.
