Convenient USB Volume Control: DROK PC Speaker Audio Remote Knob with Mute Function - Compatible with Win7, 8, 10, XP, Mac, Vista, Android Review

This volume control worked right away as soon as I connected it to my Win 10 computer. It even works through 3rd party KVM switch to control 3 computers. Does everything that is in the description. The light can be turned on and off, the volume changes gradually or rapidly if you press down while rotating, and the mute is instantaneous and positive. With a weighted metal base and non-slip feet, it stays in place when you twist it and spins very easily. It comes with a very nice fabric covered…

I was a bit skeptical about this product as it is cheaper than some others. Let's start at the USB end and go back to the pen itself. The USB cable is USB 3.0 and the other end of the cable is Micro USB which connects to the device. It looks like some kind of braided nylon cable, it's not plastic so it glides very well on the table. The base of the handle is solid metal, not plastic. In the hands lies very well, black matt. From there the handle goes up. The only issue I had was that the handle

I found a tricky way to reassign button functions without software and soldering. There is a hidden menu that you can access to remap the buttons. Here's how to do it. I'm assuming you're using a Windows PC. Some of them sound strange but it works. First disconnect the USB stick from the computer. Then open Notepad and make sure Notepad is the active window. Press the button and reconnect the USB cable. Hold the handle down for a few seconds. and let go. You should see activity in the editor as

I bought three of these before, back when they had a micro USB port in the case. They now feature a more convenient USB-C connector, but are otherwise physically the same. This button is reminiscent of the finest Japanese latch buttons from the 1980s. The body is solid, heavy, has rubber feet and doesn't move when you press the handle. But it can be much more than just a volume control! By using Firmware Genius (I'm talking about someone who has written firmware my entire career) you can fully…

So I looked at various volume controls and really wanted an all metal construction with no backlight. (Sometimes I like dark environments, especially blue LEDs are very distracting) but I had an old plastic volume control from the same company that I really liked. I saw that the screws were visible so I figured I could close or remove the LED fairly easily. Lo and behold the button pops up, I plug it in and find the light only comes on when the volume is changed, also with a nice smooth…

I run my stereo and video projector from an HTPC at the end of the room, so I usually use the multimedia keys on my keyboard to control the volume. Unfortunately, the new compact keyboard I bought to make room for the mouse doesn't have dedicated multimedia keys (a mechanical keyboard with cherry brown keys - if you've typed on standard rubber dome keyboards and can live with a louder keyboard). , don't run to get one of these, my typing speed has doubled). So I searched and found this USB…

. works through my PC. I edit videos on 3 monitors and also watch a lot of YouTube videos. Everyone has different volume levels, so this knob lets you quickly change the volume without chasing your mouse to adjust the controls on your PC or use your remote control. When I get a call I don't have to search for the mouse, instead a quick button press mutes the existing PC audio to hear the phone. It would be nice if it were wireless so I didn't have to fiddle with the rather short cord. You'll…
