Everything looks good so far. The free space after the rightmost playback slider bothered me a bit. But that's due to the long label text of the slast slider. And admitted, your envy24 mixer with the nice peak meters and the dB labels looks a bit more professional. ;) > One thing that takes getting used to: the controls that are "muted" in > envy24control/mudita24 are unchecked in alsamixer-qt4 -- the active or > captured channels are the ones showing the checkbox selection. There're some mixer where one has to activate a switch to mute the volume. I always found this counter intuitive. If it were real switch that mutes a channel it may make sense. But if something is glowing I would assume it to be *on*. Maybe like the status LED beside the real mute switch. Sebastian
