@troylar sry, but i'm typical user without any knowledge about programming =/ And it's my time to say thank you for this program =)

@troylar In regards to cumdeosicvolo's comment... not sure if this is what he means. I have 5-6 different audio outputs that can be online/offline depending on what I am doing. The app doesn't seem to always adjust well... as in one audio interface will be locked at what I set the app at, but another can go all the way to 100. I really really like the idea of this app as I record audio using external audio interfaces - and typically need to crank them up a bit to accommodate instruments but USB output volumes are always disproportionately louder - I like to keep Windows volume set at 50 for the right balance. Sorry to ramble - just wanted to say I have always needed this app - just need it tweaked to have a global volume level for all interfaces.

It would have been great if this tool could control other volume settings. I think that is what @cumdeosicvolo meant For me I am looking for a utility to limit(and lock) the "Headphone "volume on a PC so my nephew could not turn it up. The "volume Control" in your tool controls the General Volume but does not affect the headphone volume. If it did your utility would have been perfect (^_^)

I have a similar issue. I'd like the ability to pick what output the volume is limiting. Normally I have an unconventional setup involving VB-Audio virtual audio cable, but I had to uninstall that software because Quiet on the Set attaches to the default device instead of whatever I want it to attach to.

Basically how I tried setting it up is to have VB Cable input as the default device... and then have VB Cable output echo onto the Speakers. This unconventional setup allows me to keep most of the computer audio separate from Discord audio so if I wanted to use a soundboard website without the voices of others echoing, I could do so.

That said, I need this program because of how ridiculously loud 100% volume is with my system.
