On Windows: EarTrumpet
Being able to quickly change audio outputs is awesome, I am always bouncing between headset and speakers. Also the pop up volume mixer is better than the built in one. Been using ET for years and years, can pry it from my cold dead hands.
What does it do that the standard windows soundmixer doesn't do? You can change inputs in 2 clicks or ctrl+windows×v
Ctrl+Win+V doesn't do anything for me. The best part about Eartrumpet for me is that you can manage all audio outputs on your system individually. Since I use a virtual mixer, this makes it easy to adjust everything without being to open the mixer, as well as making sure each program is outputting audio to the right place.
+1 for EarTrumpet
It's probably the most useful program I have on my Win10 machine.
I programmed my headset macro keys to do this with nircmd.
Having a bind that just instantly toggles between speakers/headphones is one of the major reasons I'm now stuck with Linux whether I like it or not
Was one of the big things that got me hooked in general because audio config is such a pain on windows
