Could you build this?

No It is a system-wide macOS audio processor requiring low-latency C/C++ audio server plugins, HAL drivers, and specialized real-time digital signal processing without memory allocation locks.

What it would actually take: The product requires writing a CoreAudio Audio Server Plugin or virtual audio driver in modern C++ combined with custom digital signal processing (DSP) filters for 31-band EQ, bass synthesis harmonics, and lookahead limiters. The hard parts are maintaining strict non-blocking real-time safety on the audio render thread with sub-15ms latency, avoiding buffer overruns, and obtaining the necessary Apple DriverKit and kernel-adjacent signing entitlements.
