The mode picker (Off / ReplayGain / LUFS) used to live in the right-hand action slot of a settings-toggle-row and the per-mode controls were stacked into the same parent with footer-style help text. Hard to scan, visually cramped, and odd compared to the rest of the Settings page. Refactor: - Mode picker becomes a full-width segmented row with even-flex buttons, using the new .settings-segmented utility. - Each mode renders its own .settings-norm-block sub-section with a subtle accent tint and border so the active configuration reads as one coherent group. - Inside the block, every setting is its own .settings-norm-field (control row + per-control help text immediately below). 1.1 rem gap between fields, 0.45 rem between row and help — clearly groups related text without crowding. - Sliders no longer max-cap at 200 px and instead flex to fill the row. - Inactive ghost buttons (Off, ReplayGain, RG mode, LUFS targets) get a visible border and a faint surface tint so they read as selectable slots in dark themes too. - LUFS mode gets a dedicated note-box explaining that brief volume drift on the very first play of a new track is the analysis pass at work, not a bug — subsequent plays use the cached measurement, and queued tracks are usually pre-analysed during the previous song. - "Trim before measurement (dB)" renamed to "Pre-analysis attenuation" (and equivalents in 8 locales). - New i18n keys: normalizationDesc, normalizationOff/ReplayGain/Lufs, loudnessTargetLufsDesc, loudnessFirstPlayNote, replayGainPreGainDesc, replayGainFallbackDesc.

Psysonic
The Ultimate Desktop Client for Self-Hosted Music Libraries
Fast. Beautiful. Native. Feature-packed. Built primarily for Navidrome. Also compatible with Gonic, Airsonic, LMS and other Subsonic-compatible servers with partial feature support.
No telemetry • Native performance • Massive feature set • Community driven
Warning
Psysonic is under heavy active development. Bugs and rough edges are to be expected. We reserve the right to change, remove, or rework existing features at any time without prior notice.
Server Compatibility
Psysonic is optimized first and foremost for Navidrome.
Many advanced functions integrate directly with Navidrome APIs for the best possible experience. Other Subsonic-compatible servers generally work well, but some features may be limited depending on server capabilities.
Why Psysonic?
Most Subsonic clients feel like web wrappers.
Psysonic does not.
It is a true desktop experience built with Rust, Tauri v2, and React for users who care about speed, aesthetics, customization, and serious music library management.
If you host your own music, this is what the premium experience should feel like.
