Not all applications I run have volume controls, and I can customize to my personal liking. The saving grace here is the per application volume leveling feature, which is very handy in making the loud noises softer and the soft noises louder. I end up using only the Fidelity feature out of the 5 offered, but oh well, I can still achieve a good enough audio reproduction for a mass market application. The amplification is weaker than in Boom 2, and there is a major issue with audio lag using bluetooth headphones as well as computer speakers both iMac and third party externals. While this application is seemingly the only one out there with relative competency and as many features, the 3D effect still falls flat with both speakers and headphones, a clear selling point. ![]() Also, I don’t have an affiliation with the company. It’ll make the sound more “life-like.ĭownload the trial on their site if you are skeptical. They have somehow managed to increase the sound volume without causing any noticeable distortion.Įach of the 3D settings is great, so pick whichever one suits whatever your are listening too. Words are superfluous, the increase in sound quality is immediately noticeable. So, the audio was already more than satisfactory. I have very good headphones, the Meze 99 Classics. The Boom 3D audio app is one of the best apps I’ve downloaded for the Mac in a long time. I hope they would fix that issue in either newer current build updates or upgraded builds. Lately this app has been performeing really unusual, as it would make the audio of what I’m watching or listening in the background stutter. The 3D Surround doesn’t really provide that surround feel, it doesn’t provide that audio channel separation that an actual cinema audio system provides. This app would just randomly select the audio output and it would at times glitch to a point where the app doesn’t provide any audio to your selected output. Spatialising different channels of surround audio track on headphones results in distinct perception of different audio channels on headphones with clarity.

Audio Effects- To yield a complete listening experience, Boom 3D brings in amazing audio effects that that can radically transform any kind of audio by adding an intense, unique effect and a completely new perspective. I like the different effects you can add to really being out the best in the music. This is really the first time I have written any reviews for the Boom app for Android. I have several other programs from Global Delight for my Mac and they all work wonderfully well, including Boom 3D. ![]() I have not yet written to the developer Global Delight Technologies. But now it means pulling out the phone, actually quitting the program and restarting it. When this issue first manifested, you could occasionally fix the problem by turning off Boom’s equalizer and turning it back on again. When that happens in order to restore the sound setting, the user must quit the app on the phone entirely and then restart it. On the number of apps where Boom reliably works on my phone, its equalizing effect is completely shut down by any notification sounds. Interestingly, the Jabra headset’s accompanying app comes with a basic equalizer that does work with Google Podcasts, but it is insufficient to correct the sound to my hearing like Boom used to. It’s literally changed my ability to talk over the phone and to listen to interviews, audiobooks and podcasts.īoom has no effect whatsoever on the sound the Podcasts app puts out. It helps me hear sibilance in the caller’s voice. ![]() I have a custom equalizer setting that I named “Tinny Phone”. I bought and paid for the app on each platform… mostly due to the concerns about advertisements. I have been using one or another version of Boom on my Mac Mini for years, and now it’s also installed on my Google Pixel 4a. I would like to use this app every time I listen to music as I really do enjoy the amplified sound and bass effect that it creates Unfortunately though because of constant crashes, songs randomly stopping constantly, getting logged out of whatever music service you choose, and a horribly designed play queue system, I only have the patience to use it once or twice a week when I’m actively using my phone so I can keep hitting play and reopening the app after crashes.īecause I am moderately hard of hearing in the high frequency ranges, I use the Boom 3D app.
