Description
Under Sound Channels is a slider for a setting called "APU Channels". This affects the overall volume of all five standard channels of the NES APU. However, it does not affect the volume of extra channels added by special mappers such as the VRC7, which can be best seen with Lagrange Point. It would be nice if there are extra sliders for these special channels, one for each mapper like with Mesen.

Research direction
Start by tracing the Sound Channels UI and the existing APU Channels setting, then follow how special mapper audio such as VRC7 is routed. Use Lagrange Point to verify that separate controls affect the special channels independently, matching the requested behavior seen in Mesen.
