QA 1016 demonstrates manipulating a master volume control on a device if one exists. This example is extended to the other channels of a device by using a channel other than 0, which is always the master channel.

Be aware that, as QA 1016 says, not every device has a master volume control. The same is true of individual channel volume controls. You have to be prepared to deal with them not being present.

You should check out the HALLab sample code. It puts a slider up for each volume control it finds on a device.

I'm converting some old Sound Manager code to use Core Audio. I'm using the DefaultOutputUnit example as the basis for the sound output code, and am using QA 1016 as the basis for changing the device volume setting (setting the kAudioDevicePropertyVolumeScalar property). However, this technique changes the master system volume. In the old Sound Manager code, changing the volume only changed the level of the one channel, not the entire system volume. How does one go about doing this in Core Audio? Can I still use the default output device (I need to be able to specify the output sample rate, and the default output device will automatically resample to the native device rate for me)?
