Automatically reduce volume / prioritise sound volume on different applications, possible?

[Makentox]

Hello,
Is there any way to automatically reduce volume or mute sound of one application once you open another? I believe its a bit tricky and i couldnt find any info on the internet to do so.

For example - continuously play music on Spotify and somehow automatically reduce volume or mute Spotify completely once i launch a game or Youtube/Facebook video, then increase volume or unmute it automatically. It would be enough to decrease volume/mute spotify once i launch my browser at least.

So does anyone know the way or software to manage my sounds ?

depends on your motherboard

think my z270-e came with software to do that sort of thing

though havent fully explored it to be honest so not sure exactly what it can do

sonic studio 3

though as i said never really used it but sure it had some sort of routing to different application capability in there

think you could also tell different applications to play sound through different devices

ie--could tell say media player to use the speakers but tell another app to use the headphones

Yeah this could work but i have to use only headphones due to other people at my house that dont want to listen it as well ^^
I will try to download that sonic studio 3 but i doubt it will help, thanks anyway.

even if it doesnt do everything you wanted it may help in one way or another

no idea if you can use it on a motherboard its not meant for though
