User Reviews

• Easiest way to control the volume.

  brainfireOctober 31, 2009

  Pros

  Easiest way to turn that annoying song down.

  Cons

  Too darn easy!

  Summary

  Windows volume control: Click icon. Wait for the slider to appear. Aim for, grab slider. Slide it. Volume touch? Press Ctrl+Shift, spin mouse wheel. Awesome.

• Nice software if you need absolute control over your volume.

  CableguyTKJanuary 22, 2006

  Pros

  Its free. <p>Great for people who either 1) have speakers with no volume dials and are lazy and dont want to deal with Windows Volume Controls, 2) use headphones with the same issues as in #1, 3) don't have a media keyboard with volume controls on them, 4) or are just generally lazy and dont want to move their hands at all.

  Cons

  Pretty much useless if you have a laptop, since most laptops give you a function (FN) key which when used in conjunction with usually the F11 and F12 keys control the volume...at least that is how it is on my laptop. <p>Not really useful for people who have volume dials on their speakers.

• it's of nearly no use (to me and i guess not just me)...

  harlNovember 3, 2005

  Pros

  the only two things it does are that it <p>1) includes an additional mute independent from the muting of windows' sndvol32.exe and <p>2) gives option to press one of three key combinations (like Shift+Ctrl) and use the mouse wheel or move the mouse vertically or horizontally to change volume. <p> <p>installing/deinstalling, starting/stopping and running/using the program didn't cause any problems i know of.

  Cons

  but even the things it does, it does them too badly to recommend it as a useful program, it's neither too comfortable nor versatile and it's absolutely NO (full-featured) replacement for windows' volume control, not to forget the 11 MB of RAM (+105 MB virtual memory) it uses up (for what again ??). <p> <p>however, i wonder what it's really good for then..

• Useless.

  JHSNovember 3, 2005

  Pros

  No pros. It accomplishes nothing at all.

  Cons

  This is an absolutely useless program. It only provides an alternate icon to click on in order to access sound adjustment controls that can already be accessed just as easily by clicking on the already-existing volume icon in the tray. The program actually has no function. It does not provide any volume control or other sound control of its own; the user must click on the icon, then Windows sound controls appear. This is no more convenient than clicking on the Windows volume icon, the speaker icon. Volume Touch is a pointless program.
