minidsp-rs is an alternative control software for certain MiniDSP products. It exposes most (if not all) of the available configuration parameters in a command line package, with an optional HTTP API in order to integrate with custom DIY audio projects. It can run on a variety of systems with a minimal memory footprint.

Pre-built packages and binaries are available in the project's releases section.

Debian (.deb) packages are available for:

• armhf: Tested on raspbian (Raspberry PI, including the rpi0)
• x86_64 Debian / Ubuntu variants

Single binary builds are also provided for common operating systems:

• Linux: minidsp.x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu.tar.gz
• MacOS: minidsp.x86_64-apple-darwin.tar.gz
• Windows: minidsp.x86_64-pc-windows-msvc.zip

See the complete documentation for more examples.

Running the command without any parameters will return a status summary, in this form:

$ minidsp 
MasterStatus { preset: 0, source: Toslink, volume: Gain(-8.0), mute: false, dirac: false }
Input levels: -61.6, -57.9
Output levels: -67.9, -71.6, -120.0, -120.0

# Set input source to toslink
minidsp source toslink

# Set master volume to -30dB
minidsp gain -- -30

# Activate the 2nd configuration setting (indexing starts at 0)
minidsp config 1
