As of right now MusicBee's volume slider which I use while gaming to have background music can be inconveniencing at best.

It scales from 0 to 100 evenly, in an ideal world I would like to have the slider reduce volume more at the right of the bar and less as you go down the slider.

OLD slider
0 10 20 30 40 50 60 70 80 90 100

Option slider so you can find a better volume at lower end of the slider.
0 5 10 20 40 50 60 70 80 90 100

While we're talking about bettering volume control --

Any way to make it finer and use increments of 1 (or less/configurable?), instead of kinda erratic sequence of +2+3 +2+2+2+3, etc.?
(0->2->5->7->9->11->14->...)

It kinda becomes an issue when you have to keep the volume on the lower spectrum.

Sorta agree, with the last post.

The top end of volume is where I can finely tune my volume, but once I get lower than 60% its basically 0%.

did you try "use logarithmic volume scaling" as bee-liever suggested?

Yep using it now, still 100x better for finding my preferred volume. Just anything below 60% is practically 0% for me.
