By default, boosted files are added to an iTunes playlist titled Boom. Your original files aren't changed Boom creates duplicates with a "_boosted" suffix or whichever naming convention you choose via Preferences.
You can adjust the level of boosting with a slider before clicking the Boost button. I played with this feature for a bit and found that you can easily "overboost" a file, if you will. On the Boost File tab, you can drag and drop files to boost their volume. You can also adjust the equalizer, including choosing among eight presets. On the Mac Volume tab, you can turn Boom on and off and adjust the volume. You'll see two tabs in the lower-left corner: Mac Volume and Boost File. In a brief test using tracks meant to be played loudly from Appetite for Destruction, Boom increased my MacBook Pro's volume significantly, and without any perceivable loss in clarity.Ĭlick the button below Boom's vertical volume slider to open Boom's control panel. Boom doesn't replace your Mac's default volume control instead, it's meant to be used alongside your (presumably maxed out) default volume control. Clicking on it reveals a simple volume slider.
After installing, the app places an icon in the menu bar.
#Volume booster for mac trial#
The free trial is available at Global Delight's Web site. If you are often underwhelmed by the audio output of your MacBook's speakers, Boom is worth taking for a spin. The app costs $6.99, but its developer, Global Delight, offers a free, seven-day trial. I'm going to resist the easy Spinal Tap reference and skip right to the part where I tell you Boom is a Mac app that can increase the volume of your Mac's speakers.
