Hi,
is it possible to get a equalizer into ALSA or at least into GStreamer, so that it works for every software? Perhaps via jack and some LADSPA plugins? I'm not really into this stuff yet, perhaps someone can give me hints?
PS: I need a very detailed equalizer that can go down to frequencies below 20 Hz. I want to flatten the frequency response of my speakers between 50 and 30 Hz and add a subsonic filter below 30 Hz.
EDIT: http://eq10q.sourceforge.net/ But what do I have to do that Clementine, Amarok or mpd can use this?
Equalizer
Re: Equalizer
This is a tricky one. If you want to use a ladspa plugin systemwide, you'll have to make sure that every appplication is compiled with jack support, is set to output to jack and jack output is setup with an equalizer. Since not every application has jack support, that wouldn't really work systemwide.
But, I know that you can adjust equalization with just alsa, with settings in your asound.conf (systemwide or per user). The only thing that I don't know is how.
A quick google search revealed these:

Re: Equalizer
Just wanted to note that I got it working with ingen, jack, eq10q and mpd. But it's not really the easy way of setting something for playback up I had to build a lot of dependencies and using the eq is far from ease of use.
Still thanks for providing some useful links.

Re: Equalizer
Hey Thenktor
I use AlsaEqual via Alsamixer or Alsamixergui or Alsamixer-qt4
Alsaequal is here
http://www.thedigitalmachine.net/alsaequal.html
alsamixergui from Absolute Linux
ftp://ftp.absolutelinux.org/absolute-13 ... olute/xap/
Alsamixer-qt4 also from absolute linux
ftp://ftp.absolutelinux.org/absolute-13 ... olute/xap/
Desktop entry for alsaequal (only useable with alsamixergui
alsa-equalizer.desktop
and make sure you have .asoundrc in your /home/username
I used caps and ladspa_sdk from SlackBuilds
Hope that helps?

Re: Equalizer
Just came back on this for another purpose. Alsaequal is nice
