Bit-perfect sample rate matching, 32-bit float parametric EQ, and seamless profile management. Your headphones, your way.
Purpose-built for the macOS audiophile workflow. No bloat, no drivers, no kernel extensions.
Monitors Apple Music and switches your output device to the track's native rate. No audio gaps. Bit-perfect, every time.
Live frequency response graph from 20 Hz to 20 kHz. Add, remove, and reorder filters. Adjust frequency, gain, and Q with precision sliders.
Biquad filter coefficients computed in 64-bit, applied sample-by-sample in 32-bit float. Maximum accuracy with zero compromise on performance.
Calculates peak filter response and sets compensating pregain with optional headroom. Ratcheted design: volume can only decrease, never silently increase.
Dual-tab mode for side-by-side comparison. Intelligent level matching ensures a fair A/B test — no loudness bias, just the EQ difference.
Multiple named profiles per headphone, organized by model in the menu bar. Switch EQ with a single click. Plain text files you own and control.
MusEQ works alongside Apple Music — no separate player, no audio hijacking, no complicated routing.
