Welcome to the SoundSet Application Help File
INTRODUCTION

SoundSet is an application that automatically controls your sound card’s volume when certain events occur. The program will turn the volume up when your computer is idle (so you can hear email notifications from another room), and turn the volume down to a normal level when you are using the computer again. The program can also make sure the volume is low during certain times of the day or night regardless of you computer being ilde or not.

Program Features:

•	Turn your sound volume up when your computer is idle

•	Turn volume back down to a normal level when you are using your computer

•	Turn volume down during a specified time period

•	Play sound files when switching to or from idle period

•	Runs as an icon in your system tray

•	Hear when email when it arrives when you are in another room

•	Never again miss the end of a file transfer if you walk out of earshot of your computer

•	Prevent being “blasted” by your speakers for forgetting to turn down your sound volume

•	Avoid waking up the spouse when using your computer late at night and forgetting the volume was set on high
