Due to beatmaps that has different music volume output and the effect volume output, its hard to play if both of them are not stabilized.
Its a pain when adjusting the music volume at the options just for a single beatmap and adjusting them to another if its not also good for my ears. Adjusting it with the master/universal volume also affects them both so its no use at all.

We can only adjust the master/universal volume ( Mouse wheel or UP and DOWN arrow keys )
And the effect volume. ( ALT + Mouse wheel or UP and DOWN arrow keys )
Both of them can be adjusted globally by pressing Ctrl + Shift (+ alt if effect volume).
So it might be good to adjust the music volume in-game just like the effect volume.

This feature should be easy to implement it just by making a hotkey to the music volume,j ust like the universal and effect volumes.

Here are some similar/duplicate requests I found before posting this:

Have different volume options for in-game sounds and hitsounds. ( Thread by CDFA, +0 Priority )
A duplicate thread of this but since I saw some similar requests, I decided to make a new thread and link them.

Map-specific MUSIC Volume Setting ( Thread by Oinari-sama, +0 Priority )
Its similar to this request but this is for all maps will be played.
Adjusting them individually may be a hassle and it can't be adjusted when starting to play at multiplayer.

Auto Loudness Management System ( Thread by SNZ, +1 Priority )
It seems good to include but may not easy to implement it.
Also, it would better for every person to decide for themselves where they are comfortable.

many players are used to use ALT
sad to say

Oh wow... good to see someone do their homework before posting a request!

I think it'll be good to have a hotkey (eg Ctrl + Mouse Wheel) for the music volume. While it's true that the current hotkeys for Universal + Effect Volume can cater for the majority of maps, it may be handy to be able to "enhance" really subtle hitsound by lowering the music volume (while maxing the effect volume in this case) on some maps.

I would still love to see a music volume setting for each individual map, but this request is a step in the right direction imho.

Yes. It would be really handy specially for players who focuses more on hearing the effect volume than the music volume.


Bumping my request. I would like to hear more opinions from other people about this!

Reviving~

When mapping I like to be able to turn down my music volume to hear my hitsounds better and make sure I'm not missing any.

since there is a combination for Control+Shift+Mousewheel for changing volume anywhere in the game (including while mapping) and the same for adding Alt just to turn down the effects. It'd be great if I could turn down the actual music as well and keep my hitsounds.

Supporting.

Control might not be the best option since it's already used in the hotkey commands as mentioned above.

Wish I can throw some stars this way, but It would hugely recommended if this is applied to the game.
