Apple Music Equaliser resets when skipping a song

When playing back music on Mac, i have a manual setting to the Eq. However if i skip a song, it resets back to factory setting, however if i press Pause, then play again it resets back to my manual setting.

Drives me mad.

Any Tips?

Running Catalina 10.15.6

Catalina Music app volume setting too low, and resets after each song After the Catalina upgrade, my Music (no more iTunes) has become practically unusable: each new tune resets the volume and disconnects the equalizer: need to reset the equalizer window to a category (in my case "piano", than crank up the volume for each tune, and have to leave the equalizer window open at all times). I have a collection of Bach keyboard music, use the headphones at night, and low volume renders it useless. Is Apple aware of this?

Apple Music - EQ disengages after song change I have several EQ presets that I use as a musician, one of which is to notch out bass frequencies so I can play along with bass. However, after changing songs, the EQ no longer is engaged, despite the "On" setting being ticked. The only way to correct this is to un-tick and re-tick the check box in the Equalizer window. This is very annoying, as I tend to sit for hours cycling through my music library playing along with the music. This was not an issue prior to the upgrade to macOS Catalina and conversion to Music from iTunes.

Apple Music on Catalina Issue with Apple Music insomuch that playing albums leads to tracks being skipped and then whole thing doesn't let me play anything else. Can navigate Music, but nothing plays. Have to close Music and re-start again. Really frustrating and have noticed Catalina itself seems to be so fragile - sometimes whole thing crashes if I have ipPhone plugged in to sync/charge

I used Retroactive and reinstalled iTunes. It works great as always, don’t know why it’s taking so long to fix this bug, there are multiple reports here.
