Boom 3D for Mac

Boom 3D works well to boost volume and b****, create equalizer presets for different styles of music, output devices, and even listening environments. However, I have found a strange problem with Boom 3D on macOS 14.7.1 with a M1 Mac Mini connected to desktop speakers from the headphones port. When I tap the volume up or down keys on the Apple Magic Keyboard, the sound mutes instead of going up or down. This does not happen when Boom is off, so I think it has something to do with Boom. I contacted Boom support, and after a delay of 10 days, they responded, suggesting that I try locking the balance of the output device, which did not solve the problem. I told them it didn't work, but they never responded, so I asked how to uninstall Boom 3D correctly. They said they were "sorry for the inconvenience" but didn't ask why I was uninstalling. I also contacted Apple Support, just to make sure they wasn't an issue with the Bluetooth keyboard and even tried a different keyboard, but they weren't aware of any issue.

v2.2.4 is out. Note that they've reestablished a radio listening list. Hurrah. The app has been stable and functional. I put it back to 4 stars. This is a great addition to macOS, when it's working properly.

v2.2.3 is out. "We have fixed a random crash taht occurred when the application was launched." - - Radio status: If you find it's not working by saying it can't find any stations: Quit Boom 3D, reboot it and try again. I got it working on Mac. - - Meanwhilie on iOS: You have to SUBSCRIBE. *shudder* It costs $1.99 per week. There's also the Boom FX subscription, which apparently amounts to a SUBSCRIPTION to TIDAL radio. It has a 3-day free trial. After the trial it's $15 per year. There are currently 90% off offers. - - Throughout this nonsense, I've been interacting with the Dev's "Support". They were nice enough, but knew absolutely nothing about what was going on. I had to tell THEM what was going on as things progressed. That's unacceptable. 😝

Boom v2.2.2 is out. "We have fixed the following macOS Sequoia-related issues: - Boom remains in FaceTime mode even after FaceTime is closed. - The music library fails to load." - - Radio is still broken. They say they're in dialogue with their radio provider. Apparently, they forgot to tell their Support staff. (o_0)

Boom 3D Radio is broken. Support has been notified and has not responded.
