wiremix is a terminal user interface (TUI) audio mixer for PipeWire written in Rust. It lets users adjust volumes, route audio between devices and applications, and configure device settings like ports and profiles.

Use cases

  • adjust application and device volumes from the terminal
  • route audio between PipeWire devices and applications
  • set default audio source or sink
  • mute and unmute audio streams
  • configure audio device ports and profiles
  • monitor audio peak levels

When to choose

  • you use PipeWire on Linux and want a lightweight keyboard-driven mixer
  • you prefer terminal tools over GUI mixers like pavucontrol
  • you want a familiar ncpamixer-style interface for PipeWire

When to avoid

  • your system uses PulseAudio or ALSA rather than PipeWire
  • you need a graphical mixer with rich visual controls
