Adjusting Volume Control
The Avid application allows you to adjust or mute your speaker or headphone volume without leaving the application. In earlier releases, you had to adjust the speaker or headphone volume from the desktop. You can adjust volume from the Timeline top toolbar or from the Audio tool.
 | |
Adjusting the volume control affects the volume only while you are in the
Avid application. Once you exit the application, the Volume control
defaults to how it was set on your desktop.
