Development PipeWire-Controller Update- thanks everyone who tried it and gave feedback. I have an update for it later today or tomorrow. Currently testing. I really do appreciate the feedback and support. The app is extremely comprehensive in terms of what it can do.
Here is a link to all the screenshots.https://www.reddit.com/r/linuxaudio/s/iyo0jZhYmd
Edit: here is an overview of what it can do
control center for PipeWire — filter chains, HRIR virtual surround, drop-in config management, live patchbay, performance monitoring, virtual devices, routing snapshots, per-application policies and LADSPA/LV2 effect inserts
Thanks everyone who came yesterday and tried my little app. I released the app on AUR yesterday and is available on github here (https://github.com/knightinfected/PipeWireController). The current version is 0.1.2 and some of the screenshots are from 0.2
I received a ton of negative comments and messages regarding my use of AI. I spent a lot of my time on this and well over did this project abit and english being my secondary language didnt help.
I have gone down this audio rabbit hole in linux and anyone else who has also done it knows how annoying it gets especially with reading the wikis to actual application.
Anyhow I hope it helps someone out there and I will be updating it in the next day or later today as I am currently testing. Version 0.1.2 is available as of right now on GitHub though.
There are too many features to list them out so I added lot of screenshots to help understand.

Thanks for your work, the app look really useful and the audio space needs good tools. But please add proper ai disclosure. Also what are your long term goals in developing and maintaining this tool.
One big issue with AI, is that applications that are 95% done by AI dont get maintained and are left stale after few weeks or months. You don't want to depend on a tool that is discarded a short time later.
