Overview
TuningMac is a system-wide equalizer and per-app volume mixer for Mac. It lets you EQ audio, set separate app volumes, and play through multiple outputs.
The problem
macOS has one volume for everything, and users may want to equalize audio or control app volume separately.
How it works
Install the app on macOS 14.2 or later, grant System Audio Recording permission, then adjust EQ, per-app volume, and output settings from the menu bar.
Key features
- System-wide equalizer with presets and parametric EQ
- Per-app volume and mute
- Multi-output playback with per-device delay controls
- Noise control for supported AirPods, Sony, realme and OPPO devices
What makes it different
It uses Apple's built-in audio tap on macOS 14.2 or later, so it does not require a virtual audio driver or kernel extension.
Use cases
Listening to music or watching video with separate app volumes; playing audio on multiple speakers or headphones at once.
