Great idea. It would be nice if you could chose simplified profiles. For 
example only (pcm) output channels (for things like mp3 players or games), 
only input channels (for recording), only microphones...

Maybe it is also possible to make a more intelligent slider. The problem is 
that you need two sliders for a audio source, the master volume channel and 
the source's channel. So to turn up the volume of a MP3 you have to increase 
both. I think this will confuse some people. 
An intelligent slider for turning up MP3 would be at 0% if master volume OR 
pcm volume are at 0 (because then the user doesn't hear anything) and at 100% 
only if master AND pcm are at 100%. 
If you increase it the PCM volume will be increased until it is at 100%. Then 
the master volume will be increased while the volume of all other output 
channels is decreased. 
If you decrease the volume of the intelligent slider it just decreases the 
PCM volume. 

bye...
