Extension summary

Browser EQ is a parametric audio equalizer that allows users to control the frequency content of their in-browser audio.

Is the volume level of a video you are watching too low? Is the video game footage you are watching too bass heavy or has a high pitched hiss going on in the background?

Now you can use Browser EQ to filter, boost or cut the audio frequency content of anything you are watching in the browser, whenever you want.

Release Notes: As of version 1.0.0, there is only one instance of the eq enabled per browser, which means when you toggle the EQ popup on another tab, that tab will take over and the previously EQ'ed tab will go back to its default audio stream.

Right now EQ persists between URL changes and page refreshes, so to close it down completely you need to close the tab (or alternatively toggle the EQ on another page).

Coming soon,

Presets, specified by use cases to give you an easier starting values.

PURTROPPO AD OGNI VIDEO BISOGNA CARICARE IL SETTAGGIO SALVATO. NEMMENO L'IMPOSTAZIONE SALVATA DALL'UTENTE MANTIENE -.-
