Broadcast-quality audio leveling for every website. No more volume chaos! Volume Balance applies real dynamic-range compression to whatever is playing in your browser, so loud passages stop blasting you and quiet passages stay audible. WHAT IT DOES • Master volume slider — independent from the compressor • Real audio compressor with the parameters you'd find in a broadcast plug-in: Threshold, Ratio, Knee, Attack, Release, Makeup Gain • Built-in presets: Standard, Social Media, Video/Streaming, Night Mode, Gentle • Save your own custom presets PRIVACY • Works entirely in your browser — no audio ever leaves your device • No analytics, no tracking, no telemetry • Settings are stored locally via your browser's extension storage • Full privacy policy: https://adelvo.io/privacy/volume-balance/ PERFECT FOR Social Media (X, TikTok, Instagram, Reddit), YouTube, podcasts, music sites, lectures, news clips — anywhere video and audio is sometimes too loud and sometimes too quiet. NOTE This extension cannot process DRM-protected streams (Netflix, Disney+, Apple TV+, Amazon Prime Video, Spotify Premium, etc.). The browser blocks third-party access to DRM audio for content-protection reasons. For all non-DRM media on the open web, Volume Balance works. ## Rankings - #34,873 — Overall ## Permissions and access ### Permissions - `storage` - `activeTab` ### Content script matches - `` ## Safety - **Risk impact:** Moderate risk impact - **Risk likelihood:** High risk likelihood ### Analysis details - Allows access to all websites, posing a significant security risk as it can monitor and modify data from any visited site. - This extension has low user count.
