How does Sound Booster work?

Sound Booster sits between the application you want to amplify and your soundcard. Sound Booster processes the audio stream before it reaches the soundcard's input.

Is Sound Booster free?

Sound Booster's trial can be used for any period of time, the limitation is that it stops working for five seconds every five minutes. The full version costs $19.99 and removes this limitation.

Are there alternatives to Sound Booster?

For Windows, another option is Equalizer APO, which is a free graphic equalizer that can work as a system sound booster and has VST plugin support for further audio customization. DeskFX Audio Enhancer also increases volume beyond the usual limits and includes audio effects that can be applied in real time. For increasing the volume level of media, VLC can boost sound up to 200 percent using the regular volume control.
