Uses for a per-app volume mixer on Mac

Set the volume of one app
The everyday jobs: one slider and one mute button per app, from silent up to 200%.

- Volume booster for MacSoundDial works as a volume booster for Mac by raising one quiet app above 100% while every other app stays where it is.
- Mute an app on Mac without muting everythingTo mute an app on Mac and keep everything else playing, click its mute button in SoundDial and leave the others alone.
Calls and saved setups
Let SoundDial lower other apps while you are on a call, and save the levels you use most.
- Lower music during calls on MacTo lower music during calls on Mac without touching a slider, use SoundDial's auto-duck: while a call app uses your microphone, every other app plays quieter, and the levels come back when the call ends.
- Volume profiles on MacVolume profiles on Mac let you save the level of every app once and get it back with one click, and SoundDial keeps them as chips in its menu-bar panel.
