AppFader - Per app volume

Your Mac has one volume slider. AppFader gives every app its own.

Turn Music down so you can hear a call. Keep a video quiet while a podcast plays. Record a lecture from Safari without recording anything else. AppFader lives in your menu bar and shows every app that is making sound, each with its own slider, mute button and live level meter.

AppFader Pro, a one-time purchase, unlocks everything listed under it below. If you bought AppFader before, Pro is already yours.

INCLUDED • A volume slider and mute button for every app playing audio, with live level meters • Browser audio grouped under the browser, so Safari and Chrome each get one slider • Mute All Others, and timed mute from 10 minutes to the end of the day. It comes back by itself • One mute rule, like muting Music while FaceTime is open • An equalizer for all apps, with presets and balance • Live visualizers in their own window, even full screen • An optional system volume slider

APPFADER PRO • Record any app, or everything you hear, to M4A: AAC up to 320 kbps or Apple Lossless. It stops by itself when the sound stops, and a library keeps your recordings • Quieter during calls: other apps dip while FaceTime, Zoom, Teams, Webex or a phone call plays • Output per app: send any app to different speakers or headphones • An equalizer for any single app, with your own saved presets • Profiles like Work or Night: every app's volume, mute, equalizer and output in one click • Groups that share one slider, and pinned favorites at the top • Volume boost up to 200%, with a limiter • Unlimited mute rules • Keyboard shortcuts to mute or record any app, Shortcuts app actions, and appfader:// links for Raycast and Stream Deck

STAYS OUT OF THE WAY • Lives in the menu bar, with an optional dot when an app is muted • Starts at login • Get a notification if a muted app starts playing again after a while • Works with built-in speakers, headphones, AirPods and USB audio, and follows you when you switch outputs

PRIVATE BY DESIGN AppFader needs macOS System Audio Recording permission to adjust each app's sound. Audio is mixed on your Mac in real time and is never sent anywhere. It is saved only when you press Record, to a folder you choose on your Mac. No accounts, no tracking.

Requires macOS 14.2 or later.
