EasyEffects-Presets VS yoga-linux

I apply this preset to the mic and the PerfectEQ preset from this repo to the headset.

or u can just download easy effects and use the laptop preset from this repo.

Some crazy person modified their Framework to use the Acer Spin 713 OLED display[0], but I really hope down the road there's an OLED option to purchase directly from their Marketplace. I'm betting the Framework 16 will have it, but there still hasn't been too much revealed about it.

The speakers are also disappointing; you'll definitely want to experiment with different sound equalizers. On Fedora, I'm using this Advanced Auto Gain preset[1] with PipeWire/EasyEffects.

Have you tried any of these?

Yeah, the speakers really aren't great. I've found an Easyeffects preset that makes the audio more bearable called Advanced Auto Gain here. I haven't done any research if you could replace the speakers, but I'm guessing you can't.

The speakers being worse in linux is a common issue with many laptops. It’s because on windows they use Dolby Atmos or something similar to improve the sound through software. Maybe you can try playing around with Easy Effects along with maybe some of these presets or this convolver

Give EasyEffects a try and then install some EasyEffects-Presets. Assuming your distro uses Pipewire this will enhance the listening pleasure coming out of those speakers significantly. There is a Dolby Atmos preset in there that sounds great.

Maybe worth trying out out the Advanced Auto Gain preset from https://github.com/JackHack96/EasyEffects-Presets as a starting point, as they mention it's intended for laptop speakers.

There are some presets here for EasyEffects that can help a lot. Anything with autogain is CPU heavy and may cause hiccups on slow hardware.

I have the amd (yoga 7 gen 7). you need newish kernel (6.1+) and most of the things works except those 2 things: - microphone volume is low - by default only the tweeter speaker works There's a fix for the speakers on https://github.com/tomsom/yoga-linux/ but nothing for the mic yet.

You could try something in the issues I opened about the speakers, I managed to get them working with only the systemd script. Let us know if you're lucky!

I know there is effort to keep track of the linux support on Yoga 7 Gen 7 inside of this repo: https://github.com/tomsom/yoga-linux

The reason why the speaker is shit is that the bottom woofer speakers are not turned on automatically in linux. See https://bugzilla.kernel.org/show_bug.cgi?id=208555#c689 and https://github.com/tomsom/yoga-linux/issues/3

I have the same laptop, currently on windows, I am waiting for linux kernel updates to switch to Fedora asap. Meanwhile there is this repo. I am hoping sometime between linux 6.1 and 6.5 the majority of issues are solved, as of now, linux 6.1 rc1 seems to fix microphone and "s2idle sleep (S0ix)" seems to work fine.
