Extension summary

A simple chrome extension to stabilize the volume of audio playing across all tabs.

Just install the extension to decrease the volume of media when there is a jarring loud noise (explosion, yelling etc).

I have also included some usability features: ☑️ Customizable advanced settings to adjust the compressor effect ☑️ Icon indicator when audio is being played ☑️ Switch to any tab that plays audio with one click

💬 I am always happy to hear suggestions to improve the extension! Please let me know if there's anything I can do to improve the experience.

Wanted an extension so that streams I'd watch while I slept would stop waking me up with high peaks in volume. Works well, the only thing I wish it had was a description on what the settings actually did, had to just experiment a bunch to figure out how different settings would change the volume.

It works out of the box, I can finally watch shows in peace. It's an earache reaching for the volume sliders when an action scene comes on and I'm glad this alleviates these situations. I'm just confused about the settings and what they do when customizing. Knee, ratio, attack and, release? What would those happen to do? I'm thinking maybe I can fine tune the stabilizer to a personal preference if I knew.

Saving me watching anything on Appletv, now I don't have to rush to the volume control every time they blast the music 3x louder than the rest of the show.
