How to Adjust Tab Volumes Using Different Browsers and Windows Sound Mixer
Sound mixer is one of several ways to control sound in Windows. It allows us to adjust the volume of different applications individually.
Instead of controlling the audio of tabs in Chrome, you can play different sources of audio in separate browsers. Then, you can adjust the volume of each browser using Windows Sound mixer.
First, play all the audio you want to listen to on different browsers. Then, search for Sound mixer in the Windows search box and open it. From here, you can adjust the volume of the browsers.
Though this isn’t a method for controlling Chrome tab volumes, but it does still let you adjust volume and mix the different sounds.
Control the Volume of Chrome Tabs Individually
Whether you want to listen to multiple sources of audio simultaneously or want to boost the volume, Volume Control for Google Chrome extension can help you.
You can also use the Sound Mixer in Windows to achieve the same, though you’ll need multiple browsers. Controlling the volume of different sounds is quite easy either way, no matter which route you take.
