Audio Equalizer

Shape the tone with a 10-band graphic equalizer. Changes are heard live while playing; export renders them into a new file.

About the Equalizer

A graphic equalizer raises or lowers specific frequency ranges. The 10 bands run from 31 Hz (deep bass) to 16 kHz (air and sparkle), each adjustable by ±12 dB.

Start from a preset such as Bass boost, Vocal or Podcast, then adjust by ear. The response curve shows the combined effect of all bands.

How to use the Equalizer

  1. Add an audio file and press play.
  2. Choose a preset or drag the band sliders while listening.
  3. Lower the preamp if the edited version distorts.
  4. Choose a format and click Export.

Frequently asked questions

How do I boost bass in an MP3?

Choose the Bass boost preset, or raise the 31, 62 and 125 Hz bands. Lower the preamp by a few dB to avoid distortion.

How do I make voices clearer?

Try the Vocal or Podcast preset. They cut low rumble and lift the 2–4 kHz range where speech clarity lives.
