Sound Adjustment

Easily adjust various sound settings (volume, balance, etc.) via toolbar popup.

The Sound Adjustment Chrome extension offers a simple, lightweight solution to fine-tune your audio experience directly from your browser toolbar. With intuitive controls for volume (0-100 units), balance (left to right speaker adjustment), and amplification (up to 5x normal volume), users can customize sound output on a per-tab basis.

This add-on is designed for HTML5 audio and video elements, enabling quick sound modifications without affecting other tabs. Volume and balance settings reset upon switching tabs, ensuring personalized audio control tailored to each media session. Note that it currently does not support media embedded within frames. For feature requests or bug reports, the extension's homepage provides a dedicated contact form.

User reviews

Users appreciate Sound Adjustment for its ability to control and amplify audio per tab without excessive permissions. However, multiple reviews highlight inconsistent functionality across websites, failure to remember settings after restarts, occasional unexpected muting, and installation problems on certain Firefox versions.
Pros
  • Allows adjusting audio volume individually for each browser tab.
  • Can amplify volume above 100%, useful for quiet videos or sounds.
  • Does not require suspicious permissions unlike other volume control add-ons.
  • Simple and effective for balancing audio between left and right channels per tab.
Cons
  • Does not remember volume settings after browser restart; settings reset on tab or browser close.
  • Does not work reliably on all websites or tabs; effectiveness varies by site.
  • Some users report the add-on resetting volume to zero or muting sound unexpectedly.
  • Installation issues on some Firefox versions, with errors indicating corrupt add-on files.

Great experience with that one. First thing first: you can adjust every tab to your liking. One is too loud but you don't want to close or silence it? Use "Amplify" and set it to 101% and you can't really hear it anymore. A video is generally way to silent? "Amplify" full throttle and Volume between 30-40 for a normal experience. Keep in mind that not all Website (reddit) support that extension, but that isn't because OF the extension but because of reddit/the Webiste. OBVIOUSLY if you close a tab or the Browser, it sets back to the default, because you are also closing the tabs that you adjusted. Please keep in mind that it makes sense as every tab is adjusted separately.
