EQ Apple Music Problems

Aww man this is so irritating. Seems since I have upgraded to Big Sur in which I believe it was always a problem since they started this Music deal and removing iTunes as the original App. The EQ has a serious malfunction. It does not work as it should. I have to continue to select, deselect, and select again for the songs to play at my preferred listening preference. Apple needs to fix this problem it is so frustrating. As long as I select the EQ setting I want it will remain on and continue as each song plays one after the next however the moment I decide I want to choose a song manually the EQ disables sound wise but the toggle is still selected so I have to deselect then select It again for it to resume. I have read many others are also experiencing this. I can't believe they have not fixed this problem yet.

Mac Pro, macOS 11.1

iTunes was working just fine you guys could have just upgraded iTunes and skipped this Music App entirely. This thing is seriously buggy. Below is a list of other problems happening with this Music App that I have experienced.


  1. Skipping Songs: Seems at the end of each song as it is trailing off it skips. So around the last 5-8 seconds or so of each song it skips.
  2. Adding Songs to Library: When I import music to the Music Library it does not completely link all the songs. The songs would be copied to the library but when I seek to play some of the songs they are not linked to the file in the library and I have to manually search for it to link it.
  3. Songs being separated from albums: During importing of albums, soundtracks etc., in many cases the songs would import individually outside of the album. Example: I import an album with 21 songs. 12 of them would be in the album and the other 9 would be separated from the album. I would go in the "get info" area of the files to make adjustments to properly ensure the files match everything in the actual album folder such as Artist, Album, Album Artist, Composer, Genre, Grouping, Year, Disc Number, either toggle "compilation" on or off because I want the songs all in the same album folder, I would also make the adjustments needed in the "Sorting" tab save everything and nothing changes.


These issues were not present in iTunes I would always be able to make these adjustments if needed in iTunes and fix the problems easily. This Music App is very very buggy.
