personally, if you're going to use this for recording/making music,
i'd recommend ripping out pulseaudio entirely and installing jack
instead.

those applications will become redundant then.

there are many jack-specific mixer/playback/control applications to
manipulate the sound, and it is far superior to pulseaudio, although
the latter is fine for general use: voip, listening to music, etc.
