AutoEq VS easyeffects

I'm trying to follow this general process of EQing laptop speakers, which cites the AutoEQ Github wiki for digitizing a frequency response graph and converting it to CSV. The OP references converting the graphical data from an A-weighted scale to the dB scale, as well as interpolating more data points on their 20-frequency graph. Even without worrying about interpolation, I tried to follow the Github guide and just got hopelessly lost.

I have a topping dx3 pro+ and use https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq/tree/master to play around with EQ's

jamesdsp/ An audio effect processor for PipeWire clients. It also uses presets from AutoEq.

what u can do do is go here https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq/tree/master/results, pick and download the file for ur headphone and add it in APO equalizer as a second "graphic equalizer with variable bands" that will correct the first EQ with a curve made for ur headphone

Parametric EQ apps for Android can be googled, I use PowerAmp. The Qudelix takes care of all of that with its app to the point where you can load from a giant list of EQ sets they made from community data - Not all of it is accurate, better to go to the source. You can find EQ presets on the oratory1990 subreddit, Amir’s reviews for that particular headphone on Audiosciencereview and crinacle’s as well as rtings here: https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq/blob/master/results/INDEX.md

I always recommended hearing before buying, but I'm assuming you can't try many in person so use AutoEQ to get an idea what you like - https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq

https://rogueamoeba.com/soundsource/ (this has parametric EQ but it's a bit buried IIRC. It also has built-in support for AutoEQ according to this page so you might have to do almost nothing if you like the Harman curve)

Linux: EasyEffects (free and open-source)

For DSP, we already can do that using something like Easy Effects[1][2].

The biggest issue is acquiring proper impulse-response data. In theory, it has to be tuned per-model, so turning basically require pro-grade equipment and a recording studio. However, apparently many people assume Dolby is using the same profile for all laptops, so just copy-paste the same file here and there. Not really sure which is the real case.

Anyways, Asahi can ship DSP turned on by default because the distro is specific to Apple. That's how Apple boosts the quality of its hardware, and the same applies to a distro dedicated to it.

- Easy Effects: Effects for PipeWire applications; configure your speakers & microphones (e.g. noise reduction filter)

Easyeffects maybe.

EasyEffects could be a replacement for EqualizerAPO. You can do some gain staging there if you want, as well as a bunch of other stuff.

Is this a general comment meant to apply to anything or are you specifically talking about Easy Effects here?

It has installation instructions in the README, links to a wiki page with more information (https://github.com/wwmm/easyeffects/wiki/Package-Repositorie...), the application contains full documentation under the "Help" item in the menu (as many applications do) and they also have the same documentation online (https://wwmm.github.io/easyeffects/).

Not sure what more you could ask for?

I guess they're referring to my tickets: https://github.com/wwmm/easyeffects/issues/2322 https://gitlab.freedesktop.org/pipewire/pipewire/issues/3198
