EQBar detects the genre of whatever's playing on your Mac and automatically applies the perfect equalizer preset. Hip-hop, classical, podcasts — it just adapts.
Completely free. No subscriptions, no paywalls.
A native macOS popover — click the icon, tweak your sound, done.


EQBar knows what you're listening to, identifies the genre, and switches to the best EQ preset automatically. No buttons to press, no presets to pick.
Works with Spotify, Apple Music, and any app that plays audio.
Auto-genre is the headline, but EQBar is a full-featured equalizer under the hood.
Works with every app automatically. Spotify, YouTube, FaceTime, games — everything goes through EQBar.
Fine-tune from 32 Hz to 16 kHz with adjustable gain per band. Preamp control gives you headroom when you need it.
Bind presets to devices. Plug in your headphones and EQBar switches automatically. No more manual toggling.
Animated waveform in your menubar and real-time spectrum analyzer in the popover. See your audio in motion.
Native macOS app that barely touches your CPU. Designed to be invisible until you need it.
Open the app, grant permissions, and you're set. One-time setup, takes seconds.
Every sound from every app on your Mac flows through the EQ engine automatically.
Adjust the 10-band EQ, pick a preset, or let auto-genre do the work. Processed audio goes to your speakers or headphones.
When you close EQBar, your original audio settings are fully restored. Clean exit, every time.
