IVM and VOLUME MIXER

Cucscspr

Using IVM 4.03

Soundblaster Audigy 2

When a call comes in the WAVE volume in the windows MIXER gets lowered.

If I test an OGM message the volume gets lowered.

ALL the sliders are set to 0db TECHNICALLY it should not modify the MIXER, but I find it does...

Am I to assume that IVM does not have its OWN volume control? The only control it has is by raping the windows MIXER sliders?

Why is it lowering the volume in the first place if all the sliders are at 0db?

This problem is very annoying, after just 1 call the mixer is crapped on and we constantly have to adjust the volume slider for other applications to play at full volume.

Is anyone getting this problem as well? I can't find anything simular on this board.

Thanx

I cannot say I've noticed this problem with IVM specifically, but it is not the first time I've heard of or experienced the issue of the Windows Volume/Mixer controls changing on their own after running NCH's software. For instance, I believe it is BMS or something where once it is run, it will go as far as to Un-mute your speakers and set them to maximum volume. This happened to me once in a school environment and it caused quite a problem and self humiliation. If you're asking why I was starting the software at school, I wasn't.. it automatically sets itself to start-up automatically, and not only is it difficult to stop it from starting up, it is impossible to stop it from changing the volume controls.

So basically what I'm saying is.. there is not much you can do about it, but I sympathize as I've had very similar (and worse) problems regarding this issue.
