PrettyEQ
prettyeq is a system-wide paramateric equalizer for pulseaudio. This software is in alpha. Use at your own discretion.
Building
mkdir build
cd build
qmake CONFIG+=release ..
make -j4
Usage
When the program is executed all pulseaudio streams will be routed through the equalizer. With no filters activated prettyeq acts as a passthrough sink.
Right now prettyeq only supports two-channel sound.
Filter types
prettyeq has three filter types:
- one low shelf filter mounted at 20Hz
- one high shelf filter mounted at 20kHz
- five peakingEQ filters that can move freely
Controls
Click and drag points to boost and cut frequency bands. The dB gain range is Β±12dB. Filter bandwidth and slope can be changed with the mousewheel.
Quitting
If your desktop has a system tray, the close button will hide the GUI but the equalizer will still be in effect. There are context menus in the application and tray that have a "exit" option to quit the application.
