virtual property int Balance { 
   int get(); 
   void set (    int ); 
}

Property Value

A value representing the balance.

Remarks

Allowed values range from -10000 to 10000, where -10000 indicates that the right channel will receive no signal, 10000 indicates that the left channel will receive no signal, and 0 indicates that both channels will get the same amount of the audio signal. This property applied on the preview output only, the audio stream in the captured content will not be affected.
