What it does

a refined fork of eartrumpet, the beloved windows volume mixer. what's new: → music overlay – control playback directly from the popup → cleaner ui – refined visuals for windows 11 → smoother volume control – better per-app management no bloat. no subscription. just a better daily driver. built because the original was almost perfect.

BetterTrumpet v3.0 — free, open source volume mixer for Windows 10 & 11. Full theme engine, undo/redo, CLI, volume profiles, media popup, crash protection, eco mode. 14 new features. A better EarTrumpet alternative.
