A physical sound mixer/audio panel that can be be mapped w/ Linux? (lemmy.world)

TLDR; post title - does this exist?

Something that can do what OBS can do (compression, gain, volume, etc) but on a physical panel & can be mapped to hotkeys?

I'm checking here in case I'm just bad with picking the right search terms.

Or, have any suggestions for what sound management can use midi keys as hotkeys? I have a midi keyboard, if it can serve as a workaround. This isnt a neeeeed, just a nice-to-have. I worked for a hot minute with a sound mixer for a few panels recently, and it got me interested in getting one but for linux.

I also saw Soundux. It looks like it has all the must-haves of what I'm looking for. I'm just having trouble telling from the website if it can take midikeys as it's hotkeys. Some programs don't, like obs.

(uhh, mint btw?)

an input device that can map to whatever software you want to run

Yes, this actually. What I should've asked then is about what software can adjust sound filters per program running on my pc. Like, if I want to compress someone's audio coming from discord while increasing the lows of the audio coming from vlc. The software would do that. It'd just be up to the its features available whether it'll take my HID's (human interface device) events. Ty

The very basic version only allowing for one filter would be EasyEffects. If you want to use different filters for different programs you can install some LV2-plugins or bundles and then configure LV2-Plugins directly in pipewire (which is a bit of a pain) or use a GUI plugin-host like Calf and probably some patchbay (qpwgraph, patchmatrix, ...)

Or even better: try Carla, it may be a exactly what you want and can be remote controlled via MIDI or OSC
