Adjusting the audio volume via applescript can be very useful. Here’s how to raise the volume on your system 10 notches (out of 100):
-- volume up 10
set current_volume to output volume of (get volume settings)
if current_volume is less than 100 then
set current_volume to current_volume + 10
end if
set volume output volume current_volume
If you are using a using a keyboard that isn’t designed for the Mac and doesn’t have functioning multimedia controls, variations of this script can come in handy when assigned to keyboard shortcuts.
