tell application "System Events"
key code 49
end tell
Play: tell application "iTunes" to play
Pause: tell application "iTunes" to pause
Rewind (previous track): tell application "iTunes" to previous track
Fast forward (next track): tell application "iTunes" to next track
If you’re using something other than iTunes, you can still try the above. Just substitute “iTunes” with the name of the app. Depending on how scriptable the app is, this may or may not work.
Mute, unmute, set and increment system volume like so:
Mute: set volume with output muted
Unmute: set volume without output muted
Set volume to 100%: set volume output volume 100
Set volume to 50%: set volume output volume 50
Set volume to 1%: set volume 1
Make your system volume slowly fade out with this nifty little script. Adjust the “delay 0.2” bit in the middle of the loop to speed up or slow down the fade.
set a to output volume of (get volume settings)
repeat while a is not 0
set a to (a - 1)
delay 0.2
set volume output volume a
end repeat
