# 5.33. Mixer

This module can be used to configure some of the more basic options of kmix (the KDE Mixer).

The first section, relates to default volumes. With this section, you can save the current volume levels as the default. You can also load the default volume levels (thereby restoring them to the default status).

By selecting the "Load volumes on login", you can instruct KDE to automatically load the default volume levels whenever KDE is started.

The next section, lets you specify what hardware kmix should look for.

The slider labeled "Maximum number of probed mixers" determines when kmix stops looking for soundcards. If you have one soundcard in your computer, you should set this to one. Using a higher number, means kmix will continue to search for a second sound card, which will delay the startup of kmix.

The slider labeled "Maximum number of probed devices per soundcard" determins how many devices kmix tries to detect on each soundcard. If there are more devices on your soundcard than kmix shows on startup, you should increase this number.
