Hear the suggestion, don't just read it. The Suggested EQ has always been a curve and a sentence. Now you can listen to it against your own track and decide with your ears.

  • Audible A/B during playback — switch between your track flat and your track through the suggested curve. Switching doesn't interrupt playback
  • Level-matched — the suggested side is compensated by a gain estimated from your track's own average spectrum, so the comparison is never won just by being louder. The figure is shown, not hidden
  • The curve you see is the curve you hear — the graph now draws the real response of the same filters the demo plays, replacing an illustrative drawing that no real filter would produce
  • Exactly what is applied — an expandable list gives each filter's type, frequency, gain and Q

It stays a preview, never a processor: nothing is written, exported, or altered, playback always starts flat, and the demo is unavailable while stopped. Exported documents keep the static curve and gain no controls.

Why 1.1.0 and not 1.0.0? The 1.0.0-rc series is superseded rather than completed. The paid launch has no date and features keep landing, so a version stuck at "release candidate" implied a launch that isn't coming yet. This is the first stable release.

Also corrected: the About panel and README still described the code as PolyForm Noncommercial licensed. WavRead is proprietary — © 2026 Erik Mann, all rights reserved — and both now say so.

Free during development, still unsigned (right-click → Open on first launch). Analyses made under the app's former name, SoundScribe, keep working.
