Can someone kindly help me out? I would like to be able to set the master audio/mixer fader in Vista to about 95% so I know everytime I play some tunes that my sound card isnt peaking out.

I am aware of this code...
send {Volume_up}
which will send up the fader but it takes it to 100% everytime and was wondering if anyone knows the code so it can be preset it to a set level everytime.

Thanks in advance.

Krogdor, I have already gone down that path.. that's what the search page is for... thanks.

The reason I opted to ask is becuase the scripts there is like a jungle to me and I wouldnt know where to start.

I'd appreciate if yourself or someone could run me through the basics of how to set a simple preset.

Garry, this only works for the AHK fader. I tried it and it doesnt work.

I will look further through the help section from what you given me and see how I go from there. Cheers.

The AHK built in sound functions do NOT work in Vista. Hence, the link I posted.

First off, I'm assuming you know how to use the #Include directive? Or Standard Libraries, either way.
Anyway, download the VA (Vista Audio) functions in the link, as well as the COM functions needed to support them (link to that provided within the link) and include them in your script.

Next, you need to call Com_Init() before you can use any of the VA functions. Then, to set the master volume, use VA_SetMasterVolume(#). In your case, you said you wanted it to be 95%, so, your script should look like this:
