## Description

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.

## Review summary

User feedback is mixed. A minority praise its simplicity and YouTube-specific preset, noting it’s easy to use and meets a need. However, a larger number report reliability problems: the addon often does nothing, UI controls may not appear on YouTube, and the extension can stay greyed out with no audio effect. Compatibility issues across platforms and Firefox versions (e.g., Debian 32-bit, ESR 102) are mentioned, along with occasional conflicts with other addons. Overall, the tool shows potential but reliability varies by environment.

### Pros

- Easy to use with a YouTube-specific preset
- YouTube-focused preset/config for convenient use
- Some users report positive results and satisfaction (e.g., 7very good thanks7, uneral perfect)

### Cons

- Does not work / broken in many reports (no functionality)
- No visible UI control on YouTube (button/icon often missing)
- Extension can be greyed out or produce no audio effect
- Compatibility issues across platforms and Firefox versions (e.g., Debian 32-bit, Firefox ESR 102)
- Potential conflicts with other addons interfering with functionality
