Advanced Controls
amixer without a parameter will show all available controls. For example:
# amixer Simple mixer control 'Headphone',0 Capabilities: volume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: 0 - 63 Front Left: 35 [56%] [-22.00dB] Playback [on] Front Right: 35 [56%] [-22.00dB] Playback [on] Simple mixer control 'Headphone ZC',0 Capabilities: pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Mono: Front Left: Playback [on] Front Right: Playback [on] Simple mixer control 'Line Output',0 Capabilities: volume pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: 0 - 63 Front Left: 57 [90%] [0.00dB] Playback [on] Front Right: 57 [90%] [0.00dB] Playback [on] Simple mixer control 'Line Output ZC',0 Capabilities: pswitch Playback channels: Front Left - Front Right Mono: Front Left: Playback [on] Front Right: Playback [on] Simple mixer control 'Capture',0 Capabilities: cvolume cswitch Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Capture 0 - 31 Front Left: Capture 24 [77%] [on] Front Right: Capture 24 [77%] [on] Simple mixer control 'Capture Input',0 Capabilities: enum Items: 'ADC' 'DMIC' Item0: 'DMIC' ...
Options:
amixer sset sID P set contents for one mixer simple control amixer sget sID get contents for one mixer simple control
For example:
# amixer sget 'Capture' Simple mixer control 'Capture',0 Capabilities: cvolume cswitch Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Capture 0 - 31 Front Left: Capture 24 [77%] [on] Front Right: Capture 24 [77%] [on] # amixer sset 'Capture' 25 Simple mixer control 'Capture',0 Capabilities: cvolume cswitch Capture channels: Front Left - Front Right Limits: Capture 0 - 31 Front Left: Capture 25 [81%] [on] Front Right: Capture 25 [81%] [on]
Capture currently now set to 81%.
