Equalizer for YouTube™

Audio equalizer for YouTube and embedded videos.

Equalizer for YouTube™ is a lightweight Chrome extension designed to enhance your audio experience on YouTube and embedded videos. It allows easy adjustment of audio settings, offering 18 different audio presets such as pop, club, party, soft rock, and dance, directly accessible below the video title on the YouTube page. This unofficial add-on is independent of Google Inc and YouTube and provides a simple yet effective way to customize sound without additional toolbar buttons, making it convenient and unobtrusive.

For users seeking a more comprehensive audio equalizer that supports all websites and media types, the developer offers a separate Audio Equalizer add-on. Equalizer for YouTube™ is perfect for those who want quick and easy control over YouTube audio output to suit their listening preferences without the complexity of broader audio management tools.

User reviews

Many users report that the 'Equalizer for YouTube™' add-on is simple and user-friendly, providing preset equalizer settings specifically for YouTube. However, a majority of reviews indicate the extension often fails to function properly, with no visible icon or button on YouTube pages, and little to no audio effect. It is commonly greyed out or conflicting with other extensions, and in some cases, the required account setup is frustrating due to minimal control and inadequate presets.

Firefox is the best but most of the add-ons other people offer you are complete junk. Maybe you can get lucky and one works.

Risk impact
Risk impact measures the level of extra permissions an extension has access to. A low risk impact extension cannot do much harms, whereas a high risk impact extension can do a lot of damage like stealing your password, bypassing your security settings, and accessing your personal data. High risk impact extensions are not necessarily malicious. However, if they do turn malicious, they can be very harmful.

Equalizer for YouTube™ requires a few sensitive permissions. Exercise caution before installing.
