## Overview

Pladio's built-in equalizer lets you shape the sound to match your taste. Boost the bass for electronic music, brighten the treble for podcasts, or dial in the perfect balance for jazz. With 8 factory presets, custom presets, and automatic per-station memory, your sound is always exactly the way you want it.

Changes apply instantly — adjust the sliders and hear the difference in real time.

## How to Use

1. Start playing a station.
2. Tap the **EQ button** in the player.
3. Choose a **factory preset** or drag the **sliders** to create your own sound profile.
4. Changes apply instantly — listen and adjust until it sounds right.
5. To save a custom preset, tap **Save Preset** and give it a name.

## Factory Presets

Pladio includes 8 ready-made presets to get you started:

* **Flat** — no adjustments, the original sound
* **Bass Boost** — enhanced low frequencies for a fuller sound
* **Treble Boost** — brighter highs for clarity and detail
* **Vocal** — optimized for speech and singing
* **Rock** — punchy mids and strong bass
* **Pop** — balanced and bright
* **Jazz** — warm mids with smooth highs
* **Classical** — natural, wide-range sound

## Per-Station Memory

One of the equalizer's best features is **per-station memory**. Pladio automatically remembers which EQ setting you used for each station. Switch to your rock station and the Bass Boost kicks in. Switch to your classical station and it goes back to Flat — all automatically.

You do not need to do anything to enable this. Just set the EQ while listening to a station, and Pladio remembers it for next time.

## Custom Presets

If the factory presets do not quite fit, create your own:

1. Adjust the 5 band sliders to your liking.
2. Tap **Save Preset**.
3. Name your preset and save.
4. Your custom preset appears in the preset list alongside the factory presets.

## Tips

* **Per-station memory** means you can have different EQ settings for different stations without switching manually.
* The **Flat** preset resets all bands to zero — useful if you want to start fresh.
* Custom presets sync across your devices via iCloud.
* The equalizer works with all audio formats supported by Pladio.
