All keyboard should have volume wheels. I couldn't live without one now.
The ones oriented like a mouse wheel, but wide (as opposed to the ones sitting like a volume knob on a mixer) are very natural to use and unobtrusive.
- gigaflop 4y agoIf you were to get your hands on a QMK/VIA-powered keyboard, you could tweak the firmware for your own Fn+(anything) to map to Vol+, Vol-. Not the same, but you could have this 'under your fingertips' at all times. I tried this a while ago, but never used it much. I end up leaving my system volume at predictable levels most of the time, and ended up rebinding my arrow cluster's extra layer for Prev/Next song, which got much more use.

Currently due to many sources (PC, console, occasional synthesizer, BT receiver) I just have small mixer between my PC and speakers and it is super convenient. I actually considered hacking something akin to 3-4 encoders with display showing current app making sound and giving option to change the volume of that app
