Windows may show a SmartScreen warning
WIRE.exe is not code-signed yet. Windows SmartScreen can warn about files that are unsigned or not widely downloaded. The warning does not mean the file is damaged. It means Windows cannot confirm who published it.
To run it after you have checked the hash below:
- In the blue SmartScreen window, choose More info.
- Choose Run anyway.
If you are not sure about the file, do not run it. Check the hash first, or ask on GitHub. Signing is planned. There is no date.
Verify your download
Compare the SHA-256 hash of your file with the one on this page. If they differ, delete the file and download it again. Open Command Prompt or PowerShell in the folder that holds the file, or use the full path.
Command Prompt
certutil -hashfile WIRE.exe SHA256
PowerShell
Get-FileHash .\WIRE.exe -Algorithm SHA256
certutil prints the hash on its own line. Get-FileHash prints it in the Hash column. Case does not matter. A matching hash shows that the file is the one we published. It does not replace a code signature.
System requirements
- Windows 10 or Windows 11, 64-bit (x64).
- At least one audio input or output device.
- Optional: Virtual Audio Cable, installed separately, for virtual cables. Details.
To uninstall, delete the exe and its settings folder in AppData.
All versions
| Version | Date | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| 0.1.0 (latest) | October 19, 2026 | The first public release of WIRE, a Windows audio router and mixer. It is a young product. It works, and it is not finished. Changelog |
What changed in 0.1.0
- Route and mix audio between microphones, games, music, browsers, chat apps and playback devices. Many inputs can play to many outputs at once.
- Draw your routing on a visual node graph. Lines light up only when the audio engine confirms audio is flowing.
- Build your own mixer. The mixer page starts empty. Add faders, buttons, meters and labels, use multiple pages, and undo and redo. Everything is saved in one setup file.
- Shape the signal with nodes: merge, switcher, selector, stereo split and join, mono, gain and pan, 6-band parametric EQ, compressor, limiter, noise gate, ducker and delay.
- Control it with scripts, a local HTTP API on 127.0.0.1 with a token, a command-line tool and a Python client.
- Extend it with Python plugins. All plugins are disabled by default. One example plugin, auto-duck, is included.
- Switch whole setups with profiles such as Gaming, Movie and Late night. Share setups by copying the .wiresetup file.
- Set up named, typed virtual cables (Input, Output and BiWIRE) with a guided wizard. These need Virtual Audio Cable, see below.
- Read real engine levels on the meters, and get plain-language hints when something fails, for example when another app holds a device exclusively.
- Run on a native C++ audio engine (WASAPI) with clock-drift correction between devices and click-free changes.
