Managing volume

Listening to some music, I realised I have 5 volume controls, all completely independent of one another:

  1. The volume control in the audio player
  2. The OS (Windows) main volume control
  3. The USB / Direct mixing knob on the audio interface
  4. The volume knob on the audio interface
  5. The volume knob on the amp

It's a bit too much control really, as if the sound is too quiet there are 5 places you need to check the volume setting.
