## Description

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.

## Review summary

Users like the per-tab left-right balance and the option to boost volume above 100%, noting it works well when functional. However, many reports highlight reliability problems: it often doesn’t work, can reset a tab’s volume to zero or default, and may break after updates. Website compatibility is inconsistent (Spotify, some sites). UI/UX is frequently cited as needing improvement. Overall, the extension is useful when it functions, but reliability and usability issues are common themes.

### Pros

- Per-tab left/right balance/volume control
- Amplification above 100% (volume boost)
- Simple, unobtrusive tool focused on audio controls

### Cons

- Unreliable/inconsistent performance across sites and updates (often does nothing, may require reload)
- Tab volumes can reset to zero or to defaults unexpectedly
- UI/UX is not very user-friendly and could use improvements (defaults, controls, visibility)
- Compatibility issues across websites (e.g., Spotify doesn’t work; Reddit/other sites may be inconsistent)
