I use <a href="https://infosec.exchange/tags/SoundSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoundSource</span></a> by @RogueAmoeba to do similar things like running a compressor fx on my Teams audio to make the volume disparities less irritating.</p>

Namely, if you try to capture the sound of app that is also controlled via <a href="https://toot.community/tags/SoundSource" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>SoundSource</span></a>, SS affects the volume level of the capture itself, and you need to quit it first.</p>

While the application looks good and I trust its publisher, lowering my security settings in recovery mode to allow signed extensions from third parties is no option for me (and doesn't work for my company MacBook anyway).
