Take a Zoom without killing your playlist.

mactooloud ducks Spotify the moment a call connects, keeps Slack notifications on your AirPods so you don't wake the room, and drops every app to 5% when you step away — no master-volume scramble.

The problem

Why this gets in your way today.

Music blasts when calls connect

Zoom comes in over Spotify, you scramble for the master slider mid-greeting, and everyone hears your taste in synthwave.

Slack hums wake the room

Working from a shared space means notification pings need to stay on AirPods, never on the speakers your partner can hear.

Stepping away means yanking headphones

You step out for a snack and either pause everything manually or broadcast your music to the next room.

The fix

How mactooloud handles it.

Auto-Duck on calls

Detects every meeting app — Zoom, Meet, Teams, FaceTime, Slack huddles, Discord — and fades audio at a configurable target the moment a call starts.

Per-app device routing

Send Zoom to AirPods, music to your desk speakers. No more reaching for the system output selector.

Whisper Mode

One key combo drops every app to 5%. Walk away from your desk without yanking headphones; tap again to restore.

Mystery Sound Finder

A Chrome tab three Spaces over starts playing video. mactooloud highlights it instantly so you can mute the source, not the whole browser.

A Tuesday at your desk

The mix tracks your day.

Calls duck music. Lunch silences the room. Demos route everything to AirPods. Done with the mixer once; the rest is automatic.
