# Equalizer — Reev Vibe Audio EQ & Bass Booster for Chrome

> High-Performance, Privacy-First Chrome Audio Equalizer & Volume Booster Extension powered by Web Audio API and Manifest V3. Transform any browser tab's audio into 16 curated sound vibes (Cozy, Punchy, Lo-Fi, Phonk, Vocal, Smooth, Ambient) with one tap, or fine-tune frequencies with a 10-band precision graphic equalizer.

## Overview
Reev EQ (Equalizer — Reev Vibe Audio EQ & Bass Booster) is a real-time browser audio equalizer for Google Chrome that revolutionizes how users listen to audio on YouTube, Spotify, Netflix, Twitch, SoundCloud, Disney+, and podcasts. Unlike traditional technical equalizers that require complex slider adjustments, Reev EQ combines **16 One-Tap Vibe sound presets**, an interactive parametric Bezier curve, automatic per-site domain profiles, and an ultra-boost distortion-free volume amplifier (up to 600% with built-in dynamics compression).

## Key Features

  - `Cozy`: Warm, lo-fi, smooth sound signature tailored for study, reading, and chill listening.

  - `Punchy`: Enhanced low-end punch and sub-bass clarity for hip-hop, EDM, and bass-heavy tracks.

- **10-Band Graphic Equalizer**: Precise frequency controls from 32 Hz to 16 kHz with +/- 12 dB precision faders, switchable to 5-band and 7-band modes.
- **Interactive Parametric Curve Canvas**: Smooth cubic Bezier response curve with draggable nodes for real-time acoustic feedback.
- **Per-Site Domain Rules**: Automatically saves and applies your favorite sound vibe when visiting specific websites (e.g., YouTube -> Punchy, Spotify -> Cozy, Netflix -> Vocal).
- **Real-Time 30-Bar Audio Spectrum Visualizer**: Live canvas frequency visualizer bouncing in real-time with playback.
