This is pretty open ended, and I’m not sure “digital tool” is really what I should call it honestly. But basically, I’m putting together a big list of programs, applications, websites and the like that I find useful or helpful in some way, that I think could be beneficial to others.

So far my list consists of things like localsend, alternativeto.net, Microsoft powertoys, does the dog die, etc. Pretty varied list, some very niche some very general purpose, but just those kind of things if that makes sense?

I’m looking for some more to add, so what do you have to contribute?

    Voicemeeter allows me to send the audio streams of my computers to each other so my work PC and private PC can just use the same mic and play from my speakers/headphones without having to change any plugs.

    This is complemented by sharing my mouse and keyboard via Mouse without Borders. It’s also integrated into Power Toys but I had some issues with that version, so I’m sticking to the standalone one for now.

      I so miss Voicemeeter since switching to linux. Pulsemeeter is good, but not quite as intuitive. I’ve had some good luck with something called Easy Effects I found just this week.

      My usecase is just configuring input devices right now. Not sure if Easy Effects will do hotkeys which is what I really enjoyed in Voicemeeter.

        That’s good to know! Is Pulsemeeter compatible with the VBAN protocol and is there something like Equalizer APO that lets me do filtering and channel copying post mix? Those are the features I’m heavily relying on.

        I tried Synergy before but unfortunately it couldn’t handle my EurKey keyboard layout. MWB is so far the only software that works reliably for me.
