TL;DR
- Wavelet has added a new feature called equal loudness that makes all frequencies equally loud.
- This is helpful because, when you lower the volume of your music, low and high frequencies start to dip more than mid frequencies.
- To celebrate the update, the developer has given us 100 promo codes to give away.
Note: The giveaway was 22hrs ago. i noticed the article now. So, the chance of getting any promo code are slim to none.

You don’t need to know what’s in the ISO 226 document to understand the implications of its equal-loudness contours. What it proves is that when you’re listening to audio at low volume levels, frequencies in the midrange sound much louder than low or high frequencies.
i’m guessing that this ignores the compression used and also how the sound is reproduced. If you listen to music through your phone, there are so many variables at place i can’t see how this would matter.
most speakers, head/ear-phones people use don’t reproduce a decent sound anyway but they probably are more than enough for streaming or MP3
is this some kind of a gimmick for those awful phone speakers?
This post is an ad first and foremost. That’s why there’s a giveaway, which probably got used up in few minutes but people will keep clicking the link anyway hoping they didn’t miss it.
Mission Accomplished!
Personally i use poweramp EQ app. But, I don’t see any similar settings in the app. I will give wavelet a try just to see this feature in action.
I’ve used Wavelet for years, it really is excellent.
The AutoEq improves things across the board for all the various headphones I use (Bose QC35s, 700s and my Nothing Ears), lots of clarity, much less boomy etc.
This new feature is really nice. Being able to lower the volume and still audibly retain the sound profile is great.
I have one pair AutoEQ makes genuinely worse. The original Sony LinkBuds starts distorting quite badly with it turned on, the low end frequencies are pushed through the roof despite the earphones clearly not being built to withstand that.
Omg thank you by miracle one of the codes on mastodon wasn’t redeemed yet
Wow, really? Lucky you. I read one person said he had tried all and they were apparently all claimed.
the last one, when you used google lens to do the OCR, it misinterpreted the 0 as O - fixed that and then it added on my account. It said “the code is invalid” instead “this code has been already claimed”
Figures, good observation.
