About this extension
For more detailed information, screenshots, or if you have any support request, visit the development page of the extension here:
https://github.com/blmage/duolingo-sound-controls.

Usage

Click on the extension icon in the browser's address bar to open the extension popup and customize the sound settings. New settings will be applied from the next sound played.

Features
  • Allows defining different volume and speed settings for each type of sound:
    • effects,
    • normal and slow sentences,
    • words,
    • characters and syllables,
    depending on the context in which it is played:
    • listening challenges,
    • other challenges,
    • stories,
    • guidebooks,
    • forum discussions.
  • All settings can be defined relative to the original settings, or override them entirely (useful, for example, if you do not want story sentences to be slowed down upon subsequent playbacks).
  • Default settings can be defined for each sound type, and reused across multiple contexts.
  • A main volume setting is available to quickly adjust the volume of all sounds in a given context.

Compatibility

If you are using the Duolingo TTS Controls extension, the corresponding settings will take precedence over those from this extension.

The extension should be compatible with all others out of the box:
settings applied to sounds by other extensions are treated in the same way as the original Duo settings.

Limitations
  • The extension is deeply tied to the inner workings of Duolingo, meaning that significant changes on their side could (temporarily) break it. If that happens, you can either:
    • wait for me to fix it (you can open an issue on the support page if there is none about it yet),
    • if you're a developer, try to fix it yourself, then open a related PR on the development page.
  • Due to technical constraints, the volume of the sounds can not be raised over 100%.
