eqMac is a macOS system-wide audio equalizer and volume mixer application built with Swift and CoreAudio. It provides bass/mid/treble and multi-band EQ, volume boosting, per-app volume control, and headphone AutoEQ presets, with some advanced features gated behind a Pro version.

Use cases

  • equalize system-wide audio on macOS
  • boost volume beyond 100% on any output device
  • control volume per application like on Windows
  • apply headphone frequency-response correction presets
  • adjust bass, mids, and treble for all system audio
  • fix volume balance on HDMI or Bluetooth devices

When to choose

  • you want a GUI equalizer that processes all macOS system audio
  • you need per-application volume mixing on a Mac
  • you want to boost or balance volume on HDMI, Bluetooth, or USB audio devices
  • you want automatic headphone equalization from AutoEq presets

When to avoid

  • you need a cross-platform equalizer for Windows or Linux
  • you want to process audio files offline rather than live system audio
  • you need fully open-source software, since newer releases come from a private fork
  • you need input-device effects like microphone or guitar processing, which are still on the roadmap
