It depends. In a digital stream the broadcaster controls it, the audio
is muxed into the stream.

In an analogue recording, the mixer and any settings in myth itself,
or the drivers for the recording device. Sorry to be vague, haven't
used analogue in ages.

The rest of the answers seem to be about playback.
