Is it possible to control volume in AIMP and system by media keyboard?

[xeo]

Hi, I wanted to control the volume of AIMP using my keyboard's volume buttons, so I added global hot keys for Volume - and + by pressing volume keys on the keyboard.
The problem is it only controls AIMP's volume, without system's volume (Win 7).
Is it possible to control volume both AIMP and system at the same time?

[Алексей Долматов]

No.

Can it be done, as an option?

[Алексей Долматов]

I do not understand why in two places to adjust the volume at once. Then you will look for where the sound is reduced: in the player or in the system.

What reason for? Explain your scenario in more details

[xeo]

I always control volume using volume media buttons on the keyboard (having AIMP's volume to 100%). So I control volume of all applications (system), including AIMP. There is no way then to enjoy the benefits of features such as:
- Smooth volume changing
- Logarithmic volume control
- Loudness compensated volume control
because you only hear this when using the program itself's volume control.
I know this is not the same as the volume control of the AIMP itself, but at least these effects would be partially audible.

It would be absurd when the system adjusts linearly, and the player in its own way, and the volume changes about twice as fast as usual with unexpected gradations. In this case, you need to control the volume through the player in the system, as they do in other programs. Now the player is not able to do this and the use of the system mixer needs to be worked out with exclusive options for sound output (ASIO, etc.).

I use "Wasapi Exclusive" output option, so system volume control is disabled. Thats why it would be very helpful to have a possibility to control AIMP volume by media keyboard. I also add a global hotkeys, but when AIMP window minimized, hotkeys don't work
