+## Media control using i3 commands
+1. Create a mode "media" in i3 configuration
+2. Check pulseaudio is installed
+3. Check `pactl` is installed, which will be used as command line interface to turn music on/off
+4. Check sink number, by `pactl list`, which will show SINK 0,1,2,etc. Find corret based on which hardware are you using
+
+## Media control using TUI
+1. Install `pulsemixer` 
+2. Use `pulsemixer` TUI to change volume, this program cannot do single channel change, it can only do change on both channel at once
