A 10-band equalizer for your microphone.
Shape your voice live: cut the boom, add clarity, tame harsh "s" sounds. Tune it here with headphones on, record a before/after clip, then use the free Chrome extension to keep the same sound in Google Meet, Zoom, Discord and other web calls.

A web page can only process sound inside its own tab. The Mic Equalizer extension adds your EQ to the microphone in every website you call from. It works offline and sends no audio anywhere. Your current settings are built into the download.

Good to know
Where should I start if I've never used an EQ?
Try the Voice Clarity preset with headphones on and "Hear myself" switched on. If you sound boomy, lower 125–250 Hz. If you sound muffled, raise 2k–4k. If your "s" sounds are sharp, lower 8k. Small moves of 2–4 dB go a long way.
Why can't this page change my mic in other apps?
Chrome keeps each tab's audio separate, and ChromeOS has no built-in system-wide mic EQ. The extension gets around this by adding the EQ inside each website that asks for your microphone, which covers browser-based calls and recorders.
Does it work with Android apps or the Linux container?
No. Android apps from the Play Store use their own audio path, which Chrome extensions can't reach. If you use Linux on your Chromebook, an app like EasyEffects can EQ audio inside Linux apps.
"Developer mode" is greyed out on my Chromebook
School and work Chromebooks are often managed by an administrator who blocks unpacked extensions. You can still use the equalizer on this page, but loading the extension will need permission from your admin.
I hear an echo or squeal
That's your speakers feeding back into the mic. Wear headphones when "Hear myself" is on, or turn it off. You can always check your sound with the before/after recorder instead.
Is my audio recorded or uploaded?
No. Everything runs on your Chromebook using Chrome's built-in audio engine. Test clips stay in this tab and are gone when you close it.
