nix profile install nixpkgs#qpwgraphThe tool most Linux streamers end up living in. It draws every audio node as a box and every connection as a wire, and lets you drag new connections between them.
The reason to prefer it over Helvum is persistence: qpwgraph can save a patch layout and reapply it when the same nodes reappear. Without that, every reboot means rewiring your routing by hand, because PipeWire does not remember arbitrary connections on its own.
