Many of you are asking what happened to the volume adjustment sound in OS X Yosemite and the answer is simple, Apple has deactivated it as standard in the new operating system but offers us the option to activate it again. It is clear that many users are not missing the characteristic sound that the Mac emitted when we raised or lowered the volume, but this new OS X adds a new improved sound and it is worth activating it to see if we leave it active or not.
To activate the warning sound when raising or lowering the volume, we only have to access the System preferences and make 'a couple of clicks' that will allow us to activate it. Let's see how you hear this renewed sound that the guys from Cupertino have added in OS X Yosemite that is deactivated when we install it on our Mac, but I already say in advance that I personally like the change.
We have many new configuration options in Yosemite, adjust transparencies, adjust contrast, activate dark mode, among many others that you can see on the blog ... To activate or deactivate the sound we only have to access the System preferences and enter Sound, click on the tab Sound effects and at the bottom we find the option Play sound when changing volume. We select it with the check and we already have the new active sound.
It is interesting to take the test and activate it on our Mac because they have really improved it, in previous versions of OS X it could even be annoying for some users.

it sucks, the volume keys won't turn the audio up or down ...
I have a problem. I use a Roland Duo-capture ex 24-bit digital sound card with garage band. Until the installation everything worked correctly, now the sound has been deconfigured and there is no way that the microphone is the input interface. Only the built-in microphone recognizes me, no matter how much I change the sound preferences and Garage Band preferences ... Does anyone know any remedy? Because I use it in classes and it is essential for my work. Thank you very much, to see if someone could help me solve it!
The same thing happens to me, I tried reinstalling the most recent drivers, but I still can't use the interface. He does not recognize it. Have you already been able to solve it?
Hello kasarem, the truth is that I have no idea why it does not work for you and I am not an expert in sound cards. Let's see if someone solved it or has the same problem and helps us
Regards!
Hola!
Well I downloaded the new drivers and solved. I have not had any more problems. The only thing, that Mac continues to go crazy and only the sound is deconfigured. Sometimes it doesn't come out of headphones, other times Spotify stops playing, other times it doesn't reproduce the sound of YouTube ... The truth is that Yosemite has been a monumental shit. And the other day I was infected in a bad way. A horror.
How about, could you share from where you downloaded the drivers, this already has me crazy, I only have sound on YouTube and others, but not on iTunes or anything that is controlled with the sound buttons. Thank you
WHERE DID THE DRIVERS DOWNLOAD? I HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE AUDIO CONTROLS ...
Yes, comment on where you downloaded the drivers please ...
