(SOLVED) Define output connection of pipewire filter chain

Hello,

I'm trying to set up a couple of filters on my PC for the speakers and headphones. I want my speakers to go through a pipewire Dolby ProLogic 2 5.1 encoder and output to the motherboard line out, while I want my headphones to go through the pipewire virtual 7.1 surround sound filter and through a convolver to apply an equalizer from AutoEQ. So far I have the PL2 and surround sound encoder just kinda running in the background, and both are outputting to the wrong devices. I don't want to run a separate program like qjackctl just to have a constant patchbay in the background so I want to do it with the pipewire config files.

I'm posting for help here because I find the pipewire documentation very lacking when it comes to the filter chain, and non-existent for a patchbay.

Solved. Adding "node.target = (target node name)" to playback.props you can change the one it outputs to.
