Real recordings

Hear what the other side of the call hears

Three mics, three real recordings. Each is one take heard twice: as the mic caught it, and through TunedMic. Both are matched in loudness, so louder can't fool your ears.

Microphone

The mic built into every MacBook.

Use headphones. Laptop speakers lose the fine detail.

Recorded on our own Macs and processed by the same code that runs in the app, with the profile saved for each mic. Nothing was edited afterward.

Why it matters

People judge you by your mic, even when they catch every word

  • “Sorry, can you say that again?”
  • “You sound kind of far away.”
  • “Can you speak up a bit?”
  • You repeat yourself

    Thin laptop audio makes people lean in, then ask again. By the third try, nobody remembers your point.

  • Quiet one moment, loud the next

    Sit back and you fade. Lean toward the screen and suddenly you're too loud. You end up minding your posture instead of the conversation.

  • Fixed in Zoom, broken in Discord

    Every app keeps its own mic settings. Get one sounding right, open the next, and start over.

76 → 68.5

In a 2025 Yale study, listeners heard the same recording, either clear or distorted. The words were just as easy to follow. Yet ratings of how likely they were to hire the speaker fell from 76 to 68.5. Walter-Terrill et al., PNAS, 2025

How it works

Set it up once, in about a minute

  1. Read a short passage aloud

    Sound Check gives you a passage in any of six languages. While you read, TunedMic takes more than 30 measurements of your voice, your mic and your room.

  2. Hear yourself the way others do

    Put on headphones and flip between your raw mic and the tuned version, live, on your own voice. Prefer a different sound? Try another profile.

  3. Choose TunedMic in your apps

    Set TunedMic as the microphone in Zoom, Meet, Discord, OBS or any other app. Switch profiles later and every app picks up the change instantly. Nothing to restart.

Nine profiles

Three ways to use it, three profiles each

Every profile is built from your own Sound Check, not copied from a generic preset.

  • Calls and lessons

    For meetings, client calls and online lessons. People follow you the first time.

  • Intel Macs, or macOS 13 and older. TunedMic needs Apple silicon and macOS 14.

Common questions

What people ask before buying.

Or flip through the two-minute tour →
Which Macs does it run on?

Macs with Apple silicon (M1 and newer) running macOS 14 or later. Intel Macs aren't supported.

Is there a free trial?

No. Instead, this page has real before and after recordings from three different mics, set to the same loudness. Listen with headphones before you decide.

Will people hear a delay?

TunedMic adds less than a tenth of a second. On a call, that disappears into the delay the connection already adds.

Do AirPods work?

Yes. TunedMic works with Bluetooth headsets, AirPods included. Bluetooth limits how much detail a mic can send, so a wired or USB mic gives TunedMic more to work with.

Does my voice leave my Mac?

No. TunedMic processes your voice on your Mac, in real time. Nothing is uploaded.

What does it install?

The app, a background service that keeps TunedMic running when the window is closed, and an audio driver that adds TunedMic to your list of microphones. macOS asks for your password once, for the driver.

How many Macs can I use it on?

Two. One license covers, say, your work laptop and your desktop at home.

What happens when the year of updates ends?

Your license never expires and the version you have stays yours. You just stop getting new versions. Another year of updates is $25.

I already have a good mic. Why would I need TunedMic?

A good mic captures your voice well. It knows nothing about your voice, your room or how loudly you talk. Sound Check tunes to all three, for whatever mic you use, from a MacBook's built-in mic to a studio condenser.

Which apps can use it?

Any app that lets you choose a microphone: Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Slack, Discord, OBS, FaceTime and web browsers. Pick TunedMic in that app's audio settings.

Your next call can sound like this

One minute of reading, then pick TunedMic in your app. The people on the other end will hear the difference. So will you.
