Sonexis has been significantly expanded with independent per-app audio chains, menu-bar controls, improved Audio Unit hosting, new and refined effects, and a redesigned UI and UX. It now uses Apple’s Process Taps directly, eliminating the need for a virtual audio driver. The update also improves workspace persistence, presets, tutorials, and overall reliability, making Sonexis easier to use while giving users much more control over how audio is processed across their Mac.

Could you build this?
No It requires low-level macOS CoreAudio engineering, specifically deep knowledge of Apple's recent CoreAudio Process Taps API and Audio Unit hosting.
What it would actually take: Building Sonexis requires native Swift/Objective-C/C++ development interfacing directly with macOS CoreAudio and AVAudioEngine APIs, specifically configuring CATapDescription and handling real-time audio thread constraints. It demands specialized system-level macOS audio programming expertise to prevent buffer underruns, latency spikes, and system crashes.
