CheVolume provides the ability to manage the audio of all your media applications and the volume of your devices from one simple application. CheVolume can send the sound of games, media players or web browsers to any audio device connected to your PC, so you are not limited to a single default output. You can route different programs to different headsets, speakers, USB or HDMI devices at the same time, and each application can have its own volume level on each device. You can also move an application that is already playing to another output in a click, so it is no longer tied to just one output. Che Volume lets you decide which program plays on which device, for example a game in your headset and a movie on the speakers. It also has a full audio mixer that can play your music or games over more than one audio device at the same time. In advanced mode it shows all audio sessions created by Windows and your applications, so you can also adjust the volume of Windows sounds. For quick changes there is the Quick Audio Manager in the system tray, where you can pick the default audio device, set its volume or mute it in one click. The program runs minimized in the tray and scans the system for compatible applications. Some games need to be restarted, or muted and unmuted, before the transfer takes effect, and communication programs like Skype may not work with it.
Features:
Lets you route each program's sound to a different speaker or headset and control it all from one place.
This software suits people who use several audio devices and many audio programs at once, for example gamers who want voice and music on different outputs. CheVolume was sold as shareware with a free trial period and needs the Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5. Its website is now offline and the program is no longer updated.
