# Adjust Volume

## Content



Users can control the volume of any media by manipulating the adjust volume slider. The adjust volume slider works just like the Windows Media Player slider: sliding it to the left decreases volume, sliding it to the right increases the volume, and clicking the mute button ![](https://cdn.mescius.io/document-site-files/images/35d97b39-ed23-40ca-bb1b-90a2e9178ac1/graphics/mutebutton.png) mutes the sound.

**Controlling the Initial Volume**

You can specify the initial volume of the [C1MediaPlayer](/componentone/api/wpf/online-mediaplayer/dotnet-framework-api/C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.4.6.2/C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.C1MediaPlayer.html) control by setting the [C1MediaPlayer.Volume](/componentone/api/wpf/online-mediaplayer/dotnet-framework-api/C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.4.6.2/C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.C1MediaPlayer.Volume.html) property to a value between 0 and 1. A value of 0 turns the volume off, a value of 1 turns the volume up to its maximum, and a value of 0.5 places the volume in the middle of the scale. If you'd rather mute the control at run time, you can also set the [C1MediaPlayer.IsMuted](/componentone/api/wpf/online-mediaplayer/dotnet-framework-api/C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.4.6.2/C1.WPF.MediaPlayer.C1MediaPlayer.IsMuted.html) property to **True**.
