How to increase the volume for all audio streams >100%?

Rationale

Occasionally, audio from a very useful proprietary application is too quiet to be audible. This is impossible to remediate at the application level because:

1. I am unable to request that the application author(s) implement a method of increasing the volume >100% intra-application, because it has no issue tracker.

2. I do not want to record the audio and manually increase the volume >100%, because that would be inconvenient.

Query

Instead, hopefully it is achievable at the OS level. Consequently, how can I set any and/or all sound channels (especially the media channel) to >100% volume?

Feasibility

1. xdaforums.com/t/mod-volume-boost-on-all-default-sounds-by-150-200-full-dynamic-range.2708966 mentions that something referred to as "Viper4Android" provides this functionality, explicitly system-wide. However, I've been unable to ascertain confidently what it is, nor which of myriad projects sharing that name is relevant.

2. This is available in the "Audio" plasmoid of (V6.2 of) the KDE Plasma DE, so I don't consider what I request unreasonable.

   It's evidently not infeasibly difficult to implement for a custom AOSP distribution developer. Consequently, I expect it to be available in at least one of them, if it is infeasible otherwise.

1. Previously asked at android.stackexchange.com/q/259413, to interest, but no answer.
