your program is defacto the best volume settings replacement. i tried 10 apps or so , but yours clearly excels at every level,

Specifically for people who change their audio device often, it makes a huge difference and massive qol improvement.
Why? Because i can change the audio device and adjust the volume in the same panel in one go with opening it twice.

One feature which would make it even better imo would be to just use the mousewheeel over the trayicon to change the active sound device volume.

Another nice option would be to change the active audio device WITHOUT having to click the change default device button.
That would save another click , i hope you can consider it at least as an option.

Thanx for your hard work !

You can bind a hotkey to change between your audio devices, why not do that?
Changing the active audio device by just selecting it in the dropdown doesn't sound like a good UX to me, and I wouldn't want to change current behavior.

Regarding the mousewheel, I made an attempt to implement this, and it didn't work properly, so I wouldn't want to add it like this. And I don't have time to investigate the issue, given that the third party library for tray icon wasn't updated in years. Screenshot of how it worked.

If I want to use hotkeys i wouldnt need to use a different program with a new ui. that could be done with a few lines of script (ps1 ahk py) instead. then i would still need to hotkey and additionally open the ui to change the volume or just use hotkeys and nothing else. My main prog is blender and it already maps all buttons on the keyboard to some function so im not a fan of global hotkeys
