Thanx a lot..waited for this for a long time :-)
WOW! Why isn't this a default addon to the distro pulseaudio packages?? I'm only seeing about 2% sporadic CPU increase with pulseaudio as well. Excellent work.
Dude, you're my hero, thanks much for this. This should be definitively included for 10.4 (Lucid)
If anybody is getting kludgy sound, just turn down the pre-amp.Usually the source of bother with the presets overloading the system. If sound borks (doesn't get louder, it just fails in certain frequencies), then turn the preamp setting down.So default should be generally lower. Just my two cents.:)
Hi there!
This here is really what I've been looking for my whole "linux-life"! Sound is so much better now
BUT I warmly recommend using the pulseaudio-equalizer from phish3 (http://ubuntuforums.org/showpost.php...&postcount=115) - it's so much better! You get realtime adjustments, no distortion whatever pre-amp is set etc. and most important: simply brilliant sound!
All what you need and what you have to do is explained here: http://pulseaudio.org/wiki/SystemEqualizer
This should got to the official ubuntu-audio-dev ppa!
We just need a gtk interface - see, what I can do about this ;)
Great work!!

Well, I'm glad qpaeq works for you... I have Ubuntu Karmic 32 bits. I've tried to make it work. I've followed strictly the procedure indicated. But there is a problem with the dbus protocol module (I have it installed as well as fftw3 ).Quote:

hmm, I'am running exactly the same version (karmic/32bit) as you do. I've installed it on two different machines.Quote:

of course you need some of the libqt4-* libraries too.
maybe you can post the the error you get...
johoe
libdbus-1, libfftw3, python, python-dbus, ..., python-qt4* are all installed. The problem shows up at the install stage and solely for module-equalizer-sink which has undefined references to pa_dbus_*** stuff....Quote:

I think I figured it out - you probably need libdbus-1-dev installed (and to rerun configure), I updated the wiki to mention this. This should only be needed if you're compiling from source... the packages seem to work fine although it looks like I forgot to include qpaeq. There are download links on the wiki. In source compiling case you might also want to place "0.9.21" inside .tarball-version in the sourcetree to force the git-version-gen script to detect the build as 0.9.21... else you'll get 0.9.19 and issues might ensue... all due to upstream muckery with git, sorry.
