Volume Control by extra mouse buttons

Tiber1337

I am buying a pair of gaming headsets that do not have volume control.

 

I want to be able to turn volume up and down with the scroll  WHILE I am in a game like CS:GO BUT I want to be able to activate/ this function by using the extra mouse4 or 5 that I have on my mouse.

 

Is this possible? Volumouse didn't work ingame and X-Mouse worked but I could not toggle on/off

 

edit: this is my mouse http://www.ttesports.com/Mouse/59/THERON_Infrared/productPage.htm?a=a&g=ftr#.VZmxzqTR-Uk  in case someone knows how to do a marcro with it

You'd have to find a program that can emulate the volume keys/reprogram the mouse buttons. It's much less of a hassle if you just take cover for 2 seconds and use the media control keys on the keyboard....

Follow the topics you create using the "Follow" button in the top right corner!

One day I will have my GTX 970. One day. PC specs are at my profile.

Not sure how to check what part works with what? Check out my compatibility guide!

Mouse softwares have software/desktop controls predefined. Your problem is the activation by another button. I know that Roccats mouse (like my Kova+) have EasyShift+ feature which basicly makes one of mouse buttons act like CTRL or SHIFT. Usually you can't do it like that. Another way would be to make two identical mouse profiles and switch between them when you want to change volume. Or just go easy way and bind volume to those extra buttons.

You could always buy an in-line volume control from amazon, they are around $6-10.  You could probably use AutoHotKey to make your own volume control using Shift+NumPad +/- or something to that effect
