### Settings
You can access sound settings via the Sound applet in Raven, the Notification and Widget Center. Open Raven, either by clicking on its icon in the far right of the system tray or using the keyboard shortcut `Super + A`. The Sound applet allows you to enable, disable and alter input and output methods as well as providing a simple volume slider.
