You can’t change the “Mixer” label, but you can change your icon and the hover 
text for it.

The icon is DEVPKEY_DeviceClass_IconPath and the hovertext is 
DEVPKEY_Device_FriendlyName, which is made up from the 
DEVPKEY_Device_FriendlyName and the DEVPKEY_Device_DeviceDesc.

Subject: [wdmaudiodev] Can the "Mixer" label above sound card volume controls 
be changed?

I’m developing a “virtual” sound card driver using the msvad examples as a 
starting point.

In usage our driver will be loaded and in operation along with the “real” 
driver.

In this case when you click the Volume icon on the taskbar, two volume controls 
appear, both labled “Mixer”.

Is there anyway we can modify the “Mixer” label under the volume control for 
our “card” so it can be distinguished from the control for the “real” card?

Thanks,

Fred
