Manager: Sound Manager


Carbon will support most Sound Manager functions. The functions SetSoundVol, GetSoundVol, SndAddModifier, and SndControl were made obsolete by Sound Manager 3.0 and are replaced by other Sound Manager functions. For functions that are no longer recommended, QuickTime often provides simpler and more flexible alternatives.
