Chrome Sound Effects Extension

I created this extension to energize the experience of browsing the web. It adds sound effects to user triggered events like creating and closing tabs, switching tabs, scrolling, navigating back and forward, etc. All the effects can be manually disabled by clicking the extension icon.
I am working on adding much more nicer sounds. This is my first extension, so please leave feedback for future versions.

Thank you for checking out the extension.

Ec Little (ID: 000000b3d862a9d4) Voted 3 ★ - Updated 05/24/2022 I like the fact that it can play sounds for just about every action, but I really hate the sounds that have been picked. If there were a way to customize them and change volume it would be perfect.
