    I just did it ni about 20mins, on my soundblaster live VALUE.

    But you have to solder directly onto the board because there are no pins.
    Its just as easy tho......AND i tell you it is sooo easy to use em, rather than the volume control supplied.

    update

    Im off to maplins 2morro to see if i can get a 2 way switch. I think you can use this in place of 2 switches. Am i wrong?

    The switch needs to be a single pole changeover, non latching and have a centre off position. The contacts have to be momentary.
