SoundSource
===========

This project contains a version of Rogue Amoeba's SoundSource 2.5
with an added command line tool for switching audio devices
and setting volume.

If you want a graphical version of SoundSource, you can get one from
[Rogue Amoeba](https://rogueamoeba.com/soundsource/).  Current
versions of Rogue Amoeba's SoundSource are commercial products, not
open source.

The command line tool has no man page yet, but here's a simple
example of how to use it:

    % soundsource -h
    usage: soundsource [-ios] [device]
       or: soundsource [-IOS] volume
       or: soundsource [-Mm]
      -i         display selected audio input device
      -o         display selected audio output device
      -s         display output device used for alert sounds, sound effects
      -i device  set selected audio input device
      -o device  set selected audio output device
      -s device  set output device used for alert sounds, sound effects
      -I         display selected audio input device's volume
      -O         display selected audio output device's volume
      -S         display alert sounds/sound effects volume
      -I volume  set selected audio input device's volume
      -O volume  set selected audio output device's volume
      -S volume  set alert sounds/sound effects volume
      -M         mute selected audio output device
      -m         unmute selected audio output device
    With no arguments, displays available/selected (*) devices and volumes.
