Notice: Currently the code in this repository corresponds to v1.3.2 of eqMac without any Pro Features and all the newer releases are done on a private fork. Having the Free parts of the app open sourced required too much time to maintain and split off.

If you are a Pro customer I provide Customer Support through the Contact form on the website :)
This project is heavily reliant on the whole community helping each other out. If you have an issue with eqMac please go through Issues to see if it's already being discussed, if not create a new one. Also you can join our Discord, I'm there all the time and I like to chat with people.
Technology
eqMac was built using these technologies:
App - Native backend to the whole app. Responsible for audio processing, filesystem access, window management, API and general lifecycle of eqMac.
UI - Web based user interface that is hosted remotely and thus allows for Over the Air (OTA) updates & bug fixes. Built with Angular + TypeScript and is cached for offline availability.
Driver - System Audio loopback/passthrough device based on Apple's Null Audio Server Driver Plug-in example. One of the first Examples of a macOS System Capture drivers written in Swift. The driver grabs the system audio stream and sends it to the app through a secure memory tunnel. eqMac can grab this stream, process it and send to the appropriate audio device. The driver runs in User space instead of Kernel like the previous drivers (i.e SoundFlower), which means it's much more secure and stable.
