April 5, 2003 MIXERCTL.CONF 5

### NAME

mixerctl.conf - audio mixer configuration file

### SYNOPSIS

mixerctl.conf

### DESCRIPTION

The ```/etc/mixerctl.conf` file consists of mixerctl(1) variables to set at boot time. Each line of mixerctl.conf has the following format:
```variable=value`

To generate a mixerctl.conf from the current mixer settings, execute:
``mixerctl -a > /etc/mixerctl.conf

Set mixerctl to YES in rc.conf(5) to have the variables set at boot time. Additionally, you can have the settings saved and restored for the devices of your choice by listing them in mixerctl_mixers in rc.conf(5).
