Abstract

Example techniques described herein relate to a software application that is configured to operate as an add-on software component to audio-playback software on a playback device of a media playback system. An example implementation may involve adding the multiple audio tracks to the playback queue, and before playing back a first audio track, enabling a first add-on component to audio-playback software. The first add-on component corresponds to a first remote source and enabling this component causes a first modification to an equalization of the playback device. The example implementation may also involve before playing back a second audio track, enabling a second add-on component to the audio-playback software. The second add-on component corresponds to the second remote source and enabling this component causes a second modification to the equalization. Enabling the second add-on component disables the first add-on component if enabled.
