Why SoundPusher driver doesn't support volume control?

[arafatshahed]

I've been using soundpusher driver for a while, one thing I'm curious to know why SoundPusher driver doesn't support volume control from keyboard/touchbar? Can it be implemented?

[q-p]

The virtual device doesn't implement volume control since that doesn't make much sense for the intended use case of encoded audio.

One could apply volume on the input side, but that leaves the actual output capable of producing much louder sounds, and I don't want to be responsible for blowing people's ears / speakers / ... through some glitch.

If you want that capability, take a look at https://rogueamoeba.com/loopback/
