![Skärmbild-PulseAudio Multiband EQ [Enabled]](http://www.foresightlinux.se/blog/wp-content/uploads/2010/03/Skärmbild-PulseAudio-Multiband-EQ-Enabled.png)
GUI and script for PulseAudio users that will set up system-wide equalized audio, without needing to restart PulseAudio or any running applications.
Advantages:
- Configurable 15 band equalizer for PulseAudio;
- You can enable or disable equalized audio on-the-fly, without having to restart any running applications;
- Offers the choice of using equalized audio for the current session or permanently;
- No need to edit any configuration files by hand;
- User-customizable: you can use any LADSPA audio processing plugin (which can apply various audio effects beyond equalization);
- Packaged as a .deb file for easy installation;
- Graphical User Interface.
Usage:
Open the PulseAudio Equalizer (Applications -> Sound & Video). The interface should be fairly self-explanatory:
- 15 frequency bands you can adjust to your liking;
- Preamp will boost your equalized volume (as a multiplier value from 1x to 4x);
- Presets are included (based on VLC’s built-in equalizer), or you can choose to save own favourite configuration as a new preset;
- EQ Enabled will enable the equalizer in the current session (which applies to all running applications);
- Keep Settings will configure your PulseAudio configuration to remain permanently equalized (and therefore, you won’t need to run the PulseAudio Equalizer interface each time you login);
- Advanced menu options so that you can reset all settings (useful for troubleshooting) or delete user presets;
- Apply Settings will apply all changes.
If you already use fl:2-devel repo for your Foresight, just open terminal and write:
sudo conary update pulseaudio-equalizer
If you use fl:2-qa or fl:2 repo, then write instead:
sudo conary update {pulseaudio-equalizer,ladspa-swh-plugins}=@fl:2-devel
