    ## What even *is* Audio Lab?
    Cider Audio Lab is a suite of audio enhancement options that make your music sound better.
    Produced by Cider Acoustics Technologies, a team consisting of our resident audio engineer Maikiwi, along with a group of audio nerds.

    ### Okay, but what is that `CiderAudio` thing I see every time I open the menu?
    `CiderAudio` is the module name for Cider Audio Lab.

    If you see this prompt when trying to change your Audio Lab settings, try playing a track first.

    ## Audio Lab Modules

    ### 🔥 Cider Adrenaline Processor (CAP)
    CAP makes lossy-compressed audio sound like they are lossless.
    - It was developed because Cider does not have the necessary software to decrypt the lossless audio tracks from Apple (yet).
    - It tries to restore the “audio dynamics” from the compression/down-sampling process into the AAC codec.

    ### 🔧 Cider Opportunistic Correction System (COCS)
    COCS "tunes" specific headphones' sound to one which Maikiwi approves.

    Currently, COCS supports these headphones:
    * Moondrop _Chu_
    * Audio-Technica _ATH-M40x_ and _ATH-M50x_
    * Sony _WH-1000XM5_
    * 🔐 AirPods Max (requires payment — [see how to get access](#paywall))

    ### 🎙 Cider Atmosphere Realizer (CAR)
    CAR "models" your sound into the environment of different recording studios.
    - Due to legal and confidentiality reasons, the names are redacted to Asian drinks and desserts.

    ### 🙌 Cider Tuned Spatialization (sometimes shortened as CTS)
    As the name suggests, Spatialization makes your music sound more spatial! (Atmos-like)
    - (Try out the LIVE profile! It is modelled after a real clubhouse in Akihabara and really makes any music sound like they are live.)
