  • AutoEq

    Automatic headphone equalization from frequency responses

  • Also, I want to be able to copy presets from AutoEq as fore mentioned. Does anyone know if alsamixer is similar to easyeffects for pipewire? Do settings/sliders/options line up whatsoever? If I could translate the settings made for easyeffects into alsamixer settings that would be ideal. I'm just not sure if that's how it works. If anyone knows much about this then I would love to hear.

  • apulse

    PulseAudio emulation for ALSA

  • Most of my audio comes from Firefox, Steam, and other random miscellaneous programs. I'm wondering if I can rely on apulse for this? If I need to do some configuration that's more than okay, but if it's super buggy or hardly works then it's not worth the trouble. If anyone has experience with apulse I would love to hear more about it.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • easyeffects

    Limiter, compressor, convolver, equalizer and auto volume and many other plugins for PipeWire applications

  • Also, I want to be able to copy presets from AutoEq as fore mentioned. Does anyone know if alsamixer is similar to easyeffects for pipewire? Do settings/sliders/options line up whatsoever?

  • dsp

    An audio processing program with an interactive mode. (by bmc0)

  • I guess you can use alsa's ladspa plugin host plugin and your favorite convolution plugin, but there obviously will be no graphical way to adjust any settings.
