VLUME vs THE macOS LIMIT

When your Mac's own volume isn't enough

macOS caps how loud your Mac will go. Vlume lifts that ceiling - up to 800%, with a real limiter, a system-wide EQ and multi-speaker output.

Why people choose Vlume

Past the ceiling

macOS stops at 100%. Vlume keeps going - up to 800% - for when that simply isn't loud enough.

Loud, not distorted

The always-on limiter lets you go loud cleanly, which just dragging a slider can't.

EQ + multi-speaker

A system-wide equaliser and multi-output, neither of which macOS offers simply.

When macOS is the better pick

If your Mac is already loud enough at max volume, you don't need Vlume - the built-in volume is free and great. Vlume is for when 100% still isn't enough.
