Eeek. But enumerations from 0% to 40% sounds tedious. I'd just use a single value, it's a UI problem with the mixer and if the control isn't called "Volume" that shouldn cause the UI to not present it as a volume. He said hopefully. Or possibly a binary control I guess which would have the nice side effect of hiding from most non-specialist UIs. > And how would you suggest that I name the controls? > "Max Overclock DAC", "Max Overclock DSP" and "Max Overclock PLL"?

It's vanishingly unlikely that you'll cause physical damage with this sort of thing, you're much more likely to hit performance and filter problems than anything else.
