File-New-Project is an independent Windows development studio whose single public offering, EarTrumpet, has quietly become the de-facto replacement for Microsoft’s legacy volume mixer. EarTrumpet re-imagines audio management on Windows by placing per-application volume sliders in a clean, fly-out interface that lives in the system tray; users can set individual levels for games, browsers, conferencing tools, or media players, switch playback devices with two clicks, and even remap streams to different outputs on the fly. The utility supports classic desktop applications, UWP apps, and modern Microsoft Store packages, giving streamers, remote workers, musicians, and gamers granular control over routing, balance, and peak metering without opening the full Windows settings panel. Advanced features such as hot-key volume steps, customizable multi-channel visualizers, and automatic session persistence appeal to power users who run complex audio setups with headsets, external DACs, or virtual cables. Lightweight, open-source, and actively maintained, EarTrumpet stays in lock-step with Windows feature updates while preserving the minimalist footprint that corporate environments prefer. The program is distributed free of charge on get.nero.com, where downloads are sourced from trusted Windows package managers like winget, always deliver the newest build, and can be queued alongside other applications for unattended batch installation.
