Prevent the system volume from turned up past a user-defined value, with this simple-to-use, open-source application that runs in the system tray. #Volume Limiter #Maximum Volume #Restrict Volume #Volume #Limiter #Restrict
It is easy to turn the volume up too loud by accident, and there are plenty of applications that also modify the system sound level without asking for confirmation. Naturally, this can be a problem, regardless of whether you are using headphones or speakers.
Quiet on the Set is a relatively simple program that can keep your ears safe and prevent other users from setting the volume to a level that would be too loud. It could use some polish, but it is unobtrusive and quite intuitive.
Once you have installed the program, you just need to launch it and set the maximum desired audio volume. After clicking the Lock button, you can minimize the application to the system tray and not worry about the volume.
If a user or program attempts to increase the volume past the user-defined value, it will be lowered to the limit instantly. Unlocking the volume is very easy, as you just have to bring up the main window and click the Unlock button.
Quiet on the Set offers password protection, making it possible to prevent other users from unlocking the volume without the right passkey. However, once the program is sent to the system tray, the password you have entered will be removed, so the volume can be unlocked without it.
It also would have helped if there was a simpler way to lock and unlock the volume, such as from a context menu or using a customizable hotkey.
Quiet on the Set is a straightforward piece of software that can be very useful in a number of scenarios. It enables you to restrict the maximum volume, preventing it from being turned up too loud, but it still needs a few tweaks, as well as some extra accessibility features.
