Description

The mixer utility allows you to control audio input and output parameters: It is used with audio playback and record programs, such as scosound(X1), vplay(1), and vrec(1).

An audio adapter must be configured on the system before mixer can be run.

Options

The +rec | -rec option adds or subtracts recording devices from a list of input sources. Multiple input devices can be selected but only one of each device type. Acceptable device names are: synth, line, mic, cd.
