volume knob
Audio level adjuster
A volume knob is a rotary control that adjusts loudness on audio equipment—radios, amplifiers, televisions, stereos.
You turn it clockwise to increase volume, counterclockwise to decrease.
Figuratively, to turn up the volume knob on something is to intensify it: The campaign turned up the volume knob on attack ads.
