pacmixer is an interactive controller for PulseAudio mixers and settings.
It operates in three modes: OUTSIDE, INSIDE and SETTINGS. The OUTSIDE mode is the default (except for Settings view, where default is SETTINGS mode) and allows changing options and values on a per control basis. The INSIDE mode can be used to control individual channels. The SETTINGS mode can be used to adjust control settings.
pacmixer uses toml based configuration file stored in either $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/pacmixer/settings.toml or $HOME/.config/pacmixer/settings.toml.
When run for the first time, it will create a new file with all configuration options set to their defaults. This file can be used as a template.
This is free and open source software.
