+## Requirements
+
+-   [OBS Studio](https://obsproject.com/)
+-   [GOOBS Go Client for Websocket v5](https://github.com/andreykaipov/goobs)
+
+## About
+
+A simple demonstration showing how to sync OBS scene switches to Voicemeeter states. The script assumes you have connection info saved in
+a config file named `config.toml` placed next to `main.go`. It also assumes you have scenes named `START` `BRB` `END` and `LIVE`.
+
+A valid `config.toml` file might look like this:
+
+```toml
+[connection]
+Host="localhost"
+Port=4455
+Password="mystrongpass"
+
+```

+## About
+
+A simple voicemeeter-cli program. Offers ability to toggle, get and set parameters.
+
+## Install
+
+First build and install it with `go install` (skip this step if using binary from [Releases](https://github.com/onyx-and-iris/voicemeeter/releases))
+
+## Use
+
+Toggle with `!` prefix, get by excluding `=` and set by including `=`. Mix and match arguments.
+
+You may pass the following optional flags:
+
+-   -v: (-verbose) to toggle console output.
+-   -i: (-interactive) to toggle interactive mode.
+-   -k: (-kind) to set the kind of Voicemeeter. Defaults to banana.
+-   -d: (-delay) to set a delay on the getters. Defaults to 20ms.
+
+for example:
+
+`vm-cli.exe -v -k=potato -d=25 strip[0].mute=0 strip[0].mute !strip[0].mute strip[0].mute bus[0].gain=-8.8 command.lock=1`
+
+Expected output:
+
+```
+Running command strip[0].mute=0
+Value of strip[0].mute is: 0
+Toggling strip[0].mute
+Value of strip[0].mute is: 1
+Running command bus[0].gain=-8.8
+Running command command.lock=1
+```
+
+If running in interactive mode enter `q`, `quit` or `<Enter>` to exit.
