I am building a new "SessionMixer" application for my Linux audio setup. The goal is to provide configurable, ergonomic controls over both the audio hardware mixing (onboard in my Focusrite Scarlett, for now) and also software-layer mixing (PipeWire) under one roof.
It's early days, but a lot of the hard problems are already cracked.
Will be released as open source. Hoping it might be useful to extend for other audio hardware.
