Individual sound sliders
Vanilla audio options group every noise into broad categories. When you want to quiet a loud portal, you usually have to turn down the entire block category. Sound Controller changes that setup.
The mod adds individual volume sliders for every sound event in the game. That includes base game audio as well as sounds introduced by installed mods and datapacks. Each slider lets you adjust volume levels anywhere from 0% to 200%. You can test your adjustments immediately with an inline preview button, or reset the value back to default with a single click. A built-in search bar helps you track down specific audio events without scrolling through hundreds of entries. If you only want to review what you altered, you can switch on a filter that displays your modified volumes.
Local regions and presets
Not every audio change belongs everywhere in your world. Sound Controller allows you to build custom regions so volume adjustments only apply in specific spots.
You can configure two distinct region shapes. Box regions use two diagonally opposing coordinate points. Spherical regions rely on a single center coordinate and a set radius distance. These zones let you silence noisy mob farms or machinery without muting those same mobs across the rest of your world.
Alongside localized regions, the mod supports volume presets. Presets let you save specific audio adjustments and layer them over your active setups. Because presets apply on top of existing lists rather than overwriting them, you can stack several configurations together. For example, you can create a dedicated farm preset and apply it to multiple locations without recreating the slider settings each time.
Interface and config details
You access the menu through an Individual Sounds button placed directly on the default sound options screen. Folks who try this can also open the interface through ModMenu on Fabric or through the NeoForge mods list. Real talk, the mod also includes an option to swap standard subtitles with direct sound IDs, which makes identifying exact audio cues much easier.
Configuration data splits based on context. Global volume settings and presets share across all worlds and servers for consistent playback. Regional volume zones save separately per server.
Technical requirements
Sound Controller is strictly client-side. It is unsupported on dedicated servers, so you do not need it installed on a server to join. The mod supports NeoForge, Fabric, and Quilt loaders across Minecraft versions 26.3, 1.21.1, and 26.2.
