Audio enhancement results may vary depending on your Windows audio settings and connected device. Keep volume levels comfortable to help protect your hearing.

Volume Booster – Audio Enhancer Tutorial

Introduction

Volume Booster – Audio Enhancer is a Windows application that helps you adjust volume levels, boost sound, customize audio effects, play music, and test your speakers. It brings several useful audio tools together in one place, making it easier to personalize your listening experience.

In this tutorial, you will learn how to use the app step by step, from adjusting the volume and exploring sound modes to customizing equalizer settings, playing music, and testing your speakers.

Step 1: Open Volume Booster – Audio Enhancer

Launch Volume Booster – Audio Enhancer on your Windows PC. The main interface provides three primary sections: Loudness, Tuning, and Music Deck.

  • Loudness: Adjust the volume and boost level, and choose quick volume presets.

  • Tuning: Customize sound settings, explore sound modes, and adjust audio effects.

  • Music Deck: Play your audio tracks and select an output device.

The app also includes a Speaker Test and Cleaner section for testing audio channels and playing sound patterns.

Step 2: Adjust the Boost Level

The Loudness section includes a dedicated Boost Level slider that lets you adjust the additional sound boost.

  1. Open the Loudness section.

  2. Locate the Boost Level slider.

  3. Move the slider to the right to increase the boost level.

  4. Move it to the left to reduce the boost.

  5. Check the percentage indicator to see your selected boost level.

Start with a low boost setting and increase it gradually until the sound reaches a comfortable level. The actual result depends on your audio device, source content, and Windows audio configuration.

Step 3: Control Windows Volume

The Windows Volume slider controls the regular system volume level.

  1. Find the Windows Volume slider in the Loudness section.

  2. Move the slider to the right to increase the system volume.

  3. Move it to the left to decrease the volume.

  4. Adjust the Windows volume and Boost Level separately to find a suitable combination.

The app’s boost control is separate from the normal Windows volume setting. Increasing the boost does not guarantee the same loudness increase on every device.

Step 4: Use Quick Volume Presets

Quick Levels make common volume adjustments easier without manually moving the slider.

Available presets shown in the app include:

  • Mute: Quickly silence the audio.

  • 30%: Select a lower volume setting.

  • 60%: Choose a moderate volume setting.

  • 100%: Set the standard maximum percentage.

  • 125%: Apply an additional boost.

  • 150% and 175%: Choose higher boost settings where available.

  • MAX: Select the highest boost level offered by the app.

To use a preset, open the Loudness section and click the desired button. Some higher boost settings may be marked as premium features in the interface.

Use higher levels carefully, especially with headphones and earphones, to avoid uncomfortable loudness or audio distortion.

Step 5: Choose a One-Tap Sound Mode

Sound modes let you quickly try different audio profiles without manually adjusting every setting.

  1. Open the Loudness section.

  2. Scroll to the One-Tap Sound Modes area.

  3. Browse the available sound mode cards.

  4. Select a mode to apply its associated sound settings.

  5. Play familiar audio to compare the result with your previous settings.

Examples visible in the app include Natural Sound, Diamond Dust, Earthshaker, Crystal Narrator, Blockbuster Boom, Cardio Blast, Sleep Drift, and Halo Carousel.

Some sound modes may require additional access. Available modes and their effects can vary according to the app version.

Step 6: Explore the Sound Modes Library

The Tuning section provides a larger sound mode library for users who want more control over their listening experience.

  1. Select Tuning from the left navigation panel.

  2. Open the Sound Modes library.

  3. Browse the available categories, such as Sonic Lab, Bass Kingdom, Voice Studio, Wide Worlds, Genre Mix, Gadget Tuned, Screen Zone, Mood Rooms, Workout Zone, Focus & Calm, and Time Machine.

  4. Use the search field to find a mode by name or sound characteristic.

  5. Select a mode to explore its sound profile.

  6. Click Done to finish your selection, or use Surprise Me if you want to discover a different mode.

The library also includes a Custom option for your own slider settings. This is useful when you prefer to create a sound profile rather than choose a preset.

Step 7: Customize Sound with the Main Controls

The Main Controls section lets you fine-tune several aspects of the audio.

  1. Open Tuning.

  2. Find the Main Controls area.

  3. Adjust the Low End slider to change the emphasis on lower frequencies.

  4. Adjust Surround to change the surround effect.

  5. Adjust Room to customize the room effect.

  6. Adjust Treble to change the emphasis on higher frequencies.

  7. Listen to familiar audio as you make small adjustments.

The circular indicators display the current settings. You can experiment with different values to find a balance that works well for your speakers or headphones.

Step 8: Adjust the 10-Band Tone Mixer

The 10-Band Tone Mixer provides more detailed frequency control, from low bass frequencies to higher treble frequencies.

  1. Open the Tuning section.

  2. Scroll down to 10-Band Tone Mixer.

  3. Locate the ten frequency bands: 31 Hz, 62 Hz, 125 Hz, 250 Hz, 500 Hz, 1 kHz, 2 kHz, 4 kHz, 8 kHz, and 16 kHz.

  4. Move an individual slider to increase or decrease that frequency band.

  5. Make small adjustments and listen to the changes.

  6. Select Reset Bands if you want to return the equalizer bands to their default values.

Lower-frequency bands influence bass, while higher-frequency bands influence treble and detail. The effect of each adjustment depends on the audio content and output device.

Step 9: Apply Creative Audio Effects

Effect Studio provides additional effects for changing the character of your sound.

The app displays effects such as:

  • Ping-Pong: Creates a repeating, bouncing sound effect.

  • Tube Glow: Adds a warmer, more saturated sound character.

  • Impact: Creates a stronger, more forceful sound character.

  • Shimmer: Adds a wider, layered vocal effect.

  • Halo 8D: Creates a spatial or moving-audio effect.

  • Jet Sweep: Adds a sweeping sound effect.

  • Swirl: Creates a swirling audio pattern.

  • Pulse: Produces a rhythmic, pulsing effect.

  • Diamond Air: Adds a brighter, airy sound character.

To try an effect:

  1. Open Tuning.

  2. Scroll to Effect Studio.

  3. Find the effect you want to test.

  4. Use its slider to adjust the intensity.

  5. Listen to the result and make further adjustments as needed.

Some effects may have additional access requirements. Keep effect levels moderate if the sound becomes harsh, distorted, or uncomfortable.

Step 10: Save Your Custom Sound Settings

If you find a combination of settings you like, you can use the custom sound controls to manage your profile.

  1. Open Tuning.

  2. Adjust the main controls, tone mixer, and available effects.

  3. Select the Custom sound mode if needed.

  4. Use the Save control shown in the tuning interface to save your settings.

  5. Return to the saved profile when you want to use your preferred configuration again.

The available save and restore behavior depends on the app version and the controls enabled in your installation.

Step 11: Play Music with Music Deck

Music Deck lets you play audio tracks through the selected output device and listen to them with the app’s supported sound processing.

  1. Select Music Deck from the left navigation panel.

  2. Choose an output device from the dropdown, such as Windows default output.

  3. Click Add Tracks to select audio files.

  4. Wait for the selected tracks to appear in the playback area.

  5. Select a track and press Play.

  6. Use Pause or Stop when needed.

  7. Use Previous and Next to navigate between tracks when supported.

  8. Adjust the playback position with the progress slider.

  9. Open Tuning to adjust the sound settings while listening.

The Music Deck includes a playback queue and controls for managing your listening session. The sound you hear depends on the selected output device and the active processing settings.

Step 12: Run the Headphone Sound Effects Demo

The app provides a short demo to help you compare sound effects.

  1. Open the Loudness section.

  2. Scroll to the demo area.

  3. Connect your headphones if you want to compare the effect through them.

  4. Select a suitable sound mode or effect in Tuning.

  5. Click Start Demo.

  6. Listen as the demo switches the effects on and off.

  7. Stop the demo if the sound becomes uncomfortable.

The demo is intended to help you hear the difference between sound settings. Keep the volume low before starting, especially when using headphones.

Step 13: Test Your Speakers

The Speaker Test and Cleaner section includes tools for checking audio channels and playing test sounds.

  1. Open the Speaker Test and Cleaner page.

  2. Select the Speaker Test tab.

  3. Choose the appropriate output device from the Output Device dropdown.

  4. Start with a low Test Level.

  5. Select Left to test the left audio channel.

  6. Select Center to play sound through both channels.

  7. Select Right to test the right audio channel.

  8. Try Stereo Ping-Pong or Short Test Beep if needed.

  9. Press Stop when you finish testing.

These tests help you check channel output. The app cannot confirm which physical speaker produces a sound in every setup, so check your Windows audio settings and speaker connections if the channels appear reversed.

Step 14: Use the Speaker Cleaner Carefully

The Speaker Cleaner plays short, low-frequency or changing audio patterns intended for speaker testing and cleaning experiments.

  1. Open Speaker Test and Cleaner.

  2. Select the Speaker Cleaner tab.

  3. Choose a compatible speaker output device.

  4. Keep your Windows volume low and set a comfortable Test Level.

  5. Choose a pattern, such as Water Ripple, Dust Shake, or Deep Sweep, if available.

  6. Set the session options provided by the app.

  7. Start the playback and monitor the sound.

  8. Press Stop if you hear rattling, distortion, unusual noises, or discomfort.

Important: This feature is a sound-based playback utility, not a physical cleaning or repair tool. It cannot guarantee that water or dust will be removed, and it cannot repair damaged speakers. Use a speaker rather than headphones or earphones for this function.

Step 15: Select the Right Audio Output Device

If you have multiple audio devices connected, you can choose which one to use in the relevant playback or testing section.

  1. Open Music Deck or Speaker Test and Cleaner.

  2. Find the Output Device dropdown.

  3. Select the desired available device.

  4. Refresh the device list if the app provides a refresh button.

  5. Play a short audio track or test sound at a low volume.

  6. Confirm that the sound comes from the intended device.

Available devices depend on your Windows configuration and connected hardware. Some device changes may need to be made in Windows Sound Settings as well.

Step 16: Find the Best Settings for Your Needs

Different audio tasks may benefit from different settings.

  • Music: Try Natural Sound and make small equalizer adjustments.

  • Movies: Experiment with surround and room settings where supported.

  • Games: Try a sound profile that improves clarity without making the audio uncomfortable.

  • Voice and podcasts: Adjust the tone mixer to make speech easier to hear.

  • Headphones: Start with a low boost level and increase it gradually.

  • Speaker testing: Use the Speaker Test tools at a low volume.

There is no single setting that works best for every device or listener. Compare a few options using familiar audio and keep the settings that sound clear and comfortable to you.
