The characteristic of sound waves that the sound mixer is now able to alter is frequency. Frequency refers to the number of waves that pass a fixed point in a given amount of time, and altering it allows for adjustments in pitch and the elimination of unwanted frequencies. Saturation refers to the level of richness or intensity in a sound, amplitude refers to the intensity or loudness of a sound, and volleying refers to the way in which multiple sound waves interact with each other. None of these terms relate to the specific characteristic mentioned in the scenario.
