I recently switched from PC to Mac and one thing I miss Window's application level volume control (i.e. mute Firefox, turn up iTunes etc). How can I achieve the same on a Mac? Or better yet I want tab level volume control for either Firefox or Chrome - like only play sound for the focused tab unless I decide otherwise.
Tell me more

Detour is no longer under development, and doesn't work in MacOSX 10.5+ Hear is a rather expensive utility ($49.95) and has a number of other audio "Pro" features. Jack is a low-latency audio server written originally for GNU/Linux and I believe can change volume on a per-application basis. And it's free. |

SoundBunny ($9.99) also provides this function. Supports 10.6, 10.7 and 10.8 |

On mac, with i tunes the command is cmd and the UP arrow, this also works for divx, vlc ext, with the internet, just use the volume controls F11 / F12. No need to spend monies on silly apps! Walziee |
