macOS forgot to ship.

  • A fader per app

    Every app that plays sound gets its own slider and mute. Apps you leave at 100% pass through untouched.

  • Boost to 200%

    Lift a quiet video or call above full volume, with a soft limiter so it gets louder without clipping.

  • Per-app output

    Send each app to its own device. If that device disappears, the app falls back to the system output.

  • Ducking during calls

    Music dips automatically while you are on a call, and comes back when you hang up.

  • One-key mic mute

    Mute the microphone everywhere from a global shortcut, with a clear indicator while it is off.

  • Volume keys for displays

    Volume keys that work on HDMI and DisplayPort monitors, plus device priority when you plug things in.

How it works

  1. 01

    Install and activate

    Drag NabuSound to Applications, open it, and paste the license key from your receipt.

  2. 02

    Allow audio capture

    macOS asks once for permission to adjust other apps' audio. Nothing is recorded or sent anywhere.

  3. 03

    Mix from the menu bar

    Click the speaker icon. Every app playing sound is there with its own fader and output.
