SoundSource

brew install --cask soundsource v6.0.6

Control audio routing, volume, and effects across applications with per-app volume control and sound clip playback.

Why you might care

SoundSource gives you granular per-application audio control that macOS doesn't natively provide, letting you adjust volume and routing for individual apps independently. It's especially useful for streamers, podcasters, and musicians who need to manage multiple audio sources simultaneously, and includes quick access to sound effects and music clips.
