Try installing a package, I think it's called ubuntu studio controls.
It adds a start menu item for one-click easy setup of several
real time audio settings like this one. No file editing required.
Also you might want to actually install package ubuntu studio.
It installs several audio related packages for audio production.
It saves you the task of manually installing them all.
