Could you build this?
Partial The menu-bar UI and sliders are easy, but system-wide audio capture and routing on macOS depend on low-level Core Audio APIs and possibly a virtual driver. Debugging those is hard for an AI-assisted solo builder.
What it would actually take: A realistic build is a Swift app using Core Audio process taps (macOS 14.2+) or a virtual audio device such as a driver or HAL plugin, with a DSP biquad EQ chain per output and per-app gain. The hard parts are low-latency routing, device switching, and code signing and notarization, which need macOS audio expertise.
