Volume Issue

Here's the situation: I have various pieces of software that have sound
associated with them. One plays MP3s, one will play WAV sounds, etc. I
usually set my systems volume controls to their loudest position. Problem:
When I'm playing MP3s, the player has a volume control which is tied to the
system's volume control. Therefore, even though my system was set to its'
highest volume, if I reduce the volume (control) on the player, it also
reduces the volume of my system accordingly. Now, I have used the Windows
recorder to record my voice which I want to play a sound bite under certain
circumstances (receiving Lotus Notes mail - for example). THAT sound comes
through at a volume MUCH louder than the MP3s. Some other piece of software
will play a sound bite - but much too soft to be able to be heard over the
MP3s playing. I think you can see my dilemma. I'd like to be able to set
the volume for each piece of software independent of each other. Is there a
way to do this? Thanks....................
 
You can't. Each program is coded to do a different thing, obviously the
developers in your mp3 player application have decided to link their volume
control to the system volume, so there is really nothing you can do, perhaps
check for an updated version of that software that may include independant
volume adjustment (as it should be).
