SYNOPSIS

ossxmix [-Sbhx] [-d <dev#>] [-w <value>] [-n <value>]

DESCRIPTION

ossxmix is a GTK+ based mixer applet that is used to display the mixer settings of physical and virtual audio devices. There can be several physical mixers for a single audio device. Mixers found on audio devices are controllers that set the volume, select the input, perform certain functions on the speakers or set various device characteristics.
