Volume Control?
« on: April 03, 2026, 08:42:07 PM »
Is there a way/setting in WACUP that can control volume increment by 1%?
Right now I am using the latest beta release 1.99.47.23960 32-bit with Big Bento Redux Wacupified skin, and the volume is increased/decreased by 3% using the mouse scroll wheel. Is this a WACUP behavior or skin behavior?
PS: I don't have any other 3rd party audio plugins in WACUP nor installed in Windows that can alter WACUP audio/volume settings.

You can try holding down shift as you're trying to change the volume which iirc I added to try to use a finer resolution if possible (I can't double-check the source code until tomorrow or if that was only going to help classic skins as if depends on the way the request is done).

As the volume scale from what having winamp compatibility requires doesn't really fit into 1% steps as it's a 0-255 range which depending on the skin type & implementation either doesn't align nicely (as with classic skins) or depends on what the skin author may have chosen with modern skins or which way its triggered.

The volume tab on the playback preferences page is the only way to otherwise get an exact position in that 0-255 range mentioned above (along with other control options like using the OS process control instead which does more of a 0-100% range from what I remember whilst skipping wacup's control).

Thank you very much for your solution, YES - Shift worked for my situation, volume increased/decreased by 1%
