There is already a volume control using the mode button, why would you want a volume wheel and more importantly where would you put it?

if you can fit a volume wheel and want to use it, you would put the volume wheel between the speaker and the sound card. Something like this:

assuming you have a 5 pin volume wheel. I'd be interested to see this done, even though I feel it is not necessary. But to each, their own!
pin 2 = right in
pin 5 = right out

pin 1 = ground
