Q: Creating a Quicklaunch button for voice recording microphone boost

Hello All:

How do I create a Quicklaunch toolbar button for the "microphone
boost". I am currently accessing the controls for this in several
steps:

* Right click on Volume on taskbar

* Choose Adjust Audio Properties

* Click on Voice tab

* Click on Volume button under Voice Recording

* Click on Advanced button

* Finally check the Microphone Boost box

You don't unless you have/get a macro recording program and make a macro.
Of course, to use the macro, the macro program has to be running so why
would you do that when all you have to do is check the mic boost? It stays
checked until you uncheck it.

I can get you as far as tab number 3, which is the the Voice tab. I
am not sure how to go further than a tab selection (the tabs are
indexes). Maybe you can figure out the rest.

Make a shortcut like this:

rundll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL mmsys.cpl,,3

You can save a few clicks and mouse movements...

You might look into AutoHotKey. I know it's got functions for
controlling sound volume. It's how I change my earphone volume.
