AudioEqualizer is a lite extension that let you easily adjust audio settings (the balance between frequency components in an audio file) from a toolbar popup.There are several audios presets available to choose from in the preset list. For example, you can choose, pop, club, party, soft rock dance, or any other preset format for the audio stream. Please note that you can also define your format and then save it for later use in the toolbar popup. There is also a - reset - button to revert all changes to the factory setting.Note: this add-on has a Mono feature. Mono is an accessibility feature for people with hearing problems (i.e. deaf in one ear). When this feature is active, you will never miss a word or sound when you are listening to audio from headphones.To report bugs, please fill out the bug report form on the add-on's homepage ( -equalizer.html).

It's being 2 months i have being using zorin i liked it very much. I like to listen high bass music while working the only thing i'm missing especially on wired headset the music quality very poor as compared to my previous windows exp. I'm Asus Tuf Fx504 its support DTS audio while i was on Windows 10.


Then as you can already see in my screenshot. Click on Equalizer, adjust the frequency sliders as need. You can turn on/off the equalizer, by putting a checkmark or removing checkmark, next to equalizer in the left side list.


In the title bar, there are a few buttons. Tooltips explain most, but the ability to keep configuration between sessions is hidden in the menu triggered from left-most CSD button, labelled as Keep Settings.


Sincere apologies in the delayed reply, when I said GTK3 I meant that in context of GTK3 CSD buttons. Additional GTK3 libraries may need to be installed on exclusively Qt-based desktops like KDE if those libraries were not already dependencies from other software.


The pulseaudio equalizer ladsp package worked for me in Kde Plasma. I installed it as described at the top of this post. Thanks for this tutorial! I am really happy with it, because especially youtube videos can be of horrendous sound quality, but with this system wide pulseaudio equalizer installed, even the worst sounding youtube can be tweaked easily.


If you do encounter an issue, since this software is from the Manjaro community repository you can file any problems you encounter here and hope for a response. Also, this software needs a new maintainer to carry the torch, so if anybody wants to try maintaining the software then lend your body to the cause of great audio for all so us brainlets can not think so hard about how to make Linux sound good.


Edit: Wow, also, funniest thing, I apparently posted a comment on this tutorial about a year ago I have since tried qpaeq, I did not have the same issues with it as I did with pulseaudio-equalizer-ladspa & pulseaudio-equalizer-gtk.


See funny enough on my Dell N1770 with a second-generation, barrel-bottom Intel Core i3 second-generation processor qpaeq on Ubuntu was absolute garbage. People on the Ubuntu MATE forums agreed with me about that, but I have stopped maintaining that thread there since I am pretty much done with Debian systems.


This is supposed to be a simplified GUI for general users to access professional audio plugins

professional users would use the audio plugins directly with very different GUI and controls

(see calf-studio-gear.org and Linux Studio Plugins Project)


Pulseaudio Equalizer (qpaeq) has been recommended to avoid for many years, back to archived forum, because it generally does not work well

pulseaudio-equalizer-ladspa has been discussed much more on here for many years and is favoured by many users

Hi all, I had this problem too, luckily I was able to fix it by setting the equalizer correctly in EE and PE. It was then that I decided to share my work on GitHub and well this is the repository: GitHub - p-chan5/EasyPulse: A set of HQ presets for Easy Effects. I decided to also include a stereo effect that sounds nice on headphones.


Knowing which is the most appropriate for you is difficult. However, I support both versions (the one using PulseAudio and the other using PipeWire). They both sound the same (far from the technical aspects).


I've got some movies which I mirror via QuickTime from my Mac Mini to Apple TV. The 5.1 surround sound comes out sounding flat. Is there any kind of audio equalization I can do? I don't see any audio controls in QuickTime besides volume.


I just downloaded the older QuickTime player version 7, and it does have the AV control, but it won't play the mp4 movies that I have. QuickTime player version 10 does play them, but there seem to be no audio controls.


This may or may not be normal. QT X is is a total rewrite of the QT player to target more modern codec compression formats while QT 7 is better suited for use with "legacy" compression formats. Open the file in the QT X player and tell us what audio/video codecs were used for compression. Normally this should be either MPEG-4/AAC or H.264/AAC content, but must be "standards" compliant regarding both compression and file type. Even then, security updates may sometimes present a problem.


Not sure if you mean AC3 or AAC 5.1 audio here here. AC3 5.1 audio would require non-native audio codec support for QT 7 playback but AAC 5.1 should play as stereo natively but require additional harware support internally or externally for 6-channel AAC playback. If both stereo AAC and AC3 5.1 audio tacks are present and the AC3 track is inactive, then this would appear to be a standard TV3 encoded file if in either an MOV or M4V file container. On the other hand if AC3 content has been embedded in an MP4 file container, QT 7 will probably consider this not to a QT compatible file.


When I attempt to play the file on QuickTime 7, I don't get any error message. I just get a black screen with the name of the movie on the grey bar up on top, but there is no play button, and there is no way I can see to get the video to play.


A "black" screen normally indicates the video codec is recognized but not supported for some reason. Virtually all "standard" forms of h.264 in proper and uncorrupted file containers are supported by Mountain Lion in QT X v10.2 and QT 7 v7.6.6 players. The absence of playback controls makes it sound as if you either have a a corrupted app, file, or system or are possibly even trying to run a pre-Snow Leopard version of QT 7. Have you checked to see if this QT 7 playback problem is local or global? (I.e., do you have the same problem using a different user account?) Also, does the file start to play if you press the space bar once or double-click on the video screen with your mouse?


When I install Poweramp Equalizer it processes audio for about 30 minutes and then it stops doing so. Also when I restart the phone, there is no more audio processing even though it is active and everything seems fine in the app settings and Audio Processing is enabled.


I have a Samsung M30S with a built in 9 band equalizer into Android (under Sounds and Effects in Settings) and installing Poweramp Equalizer deactivates the built in EQ but after a while this is reversed. Poweramp EQ stops processing audio but the internal EQ starts working again. There seems to be a conflict.


1. the Samsung equalizer is not related in any way to Poweramp Equalizer (it can work in parallel, it can be disabled, etc.). It won't affect Poweramp Equalizer, though parallel usage is not recommended (due to possible overloads/artefacts/latency).


3. due the way equalization works on Android, Equalizer will pick up player only if player started _after_ Poweramp Equalizer (as players send equalization "request" on their startup). If Samsung firmware prevented Equalizer from start, equalization won't work until you restart player.

(This doesn't affect "Advanced Player Tracking" where Equalizer is able to pickup player playback at any time).


@Mahendar Reddy Most likely whatever audio playing app you are using is not handling audio sessions normally, possibly creating a new session for each song. What audio app are you using, or does it affect multiple apps?


@vext01 regarding artifacts: some players properly reuse audio session - only one is needed for the whole player lifetime. Some devs unfortunately are not aware of the issue and their players constantly recreate sessions, causing the artifacts. (The fun part the session number is a global shared int32 and when it overflow system crashes).


OK was still unable to find how to update drivers from HPSA but did update through link provided. When clicking on updating my system, receive message stating that everything is up to date. However the Beats equalizer still has no sound difference when adjusting sliders on screen.


The product is the B4T87UA#ABL. It did not come with Windows 10. I was upgraded to it. Beats was working fine a few months ago (last time that I had played with the equalizer sliders) and this after Windows 10 was installed.


As a learning exercise, I wanted to build a system that would take analog audio, convert it into a digital signal, preform audio equalizer functions, then convert it back to analog and feed it into an amplifier. I have built analog equalizers before, much like the one on:

(Transistor equalizer circuit diagram ElecCircuit.com)

I now wish do preform the same function digitally however. My first question, is this possible to do on an Arduino? I have never used an Arduino before, and am not sure if they have enough power for this kind of task. I have done some research and found that most models of Arduino only have 10 bit ADC. I have found pages like this one ADS1115 16-Bit ADC - 4 Channel with Programmable Gain Amplifier [STEMMA QT / Qwiic] : ID 1085 : $14.95 : Adafruit Industries, Unique & fun DIY electronics and kits)

that build external ADC cards that work with Arduino, are these cards better for this taks? It also appears that there is a big difference in power between different Arduino models. The Arduino Due runs a 32 bit 82 MHz processor, while the Arduino ZERO runs a 32-bit 48 MHz processor, so Is there a specific Arduino that is most suited to the job?
