Some music plays properly, and some don't (rear speakers Quadraphonic)

@Barman58 Does Peace Equalizer actually have true dynamic range compression? I'm so tired of barely being able to hear low volume passages and getting blasted by high volume passages. I downloaded the manual and it appears it does but, to be honest, my eyes were crossing by the time I got to that part.

It's the best I've seen, but it's a bit like MS Word in that it's unlikely that any one person will use more than 20%, at most, of the features available but each person will probably use a different 20% so the complexity of the program is needed to suit everyone, and as an Open Source application the price is good too

Thank you, thanyouveramuch! Ever since my beloved SP2500s died and I replaced them with JBL 305 MkIIs, I've been hunting high and low for a dynamic range compressor. Methinks I just might be able to swing that purchase price . I have the installation file download but I'll have to wait until I take care of more pressing matters to fiddle with it.

Pity this isn't compatible with Linux.

If I recall correctly, the original API may be based on a Linux source so it may be that if you follow the links from Peace EQ you may find a similar Linux option

Sorry, you just lost me. Pretend I'm three years old instead of pushing seventy.

It is possible that ...

The base code that the equaliser software is built on on was originally written in, and for, Linux, and then converted for Windows. If this is so then there could be software similar to the windows software available for use with Linux, the only way to find this possible software is to follow the links starting with those in the Peace EQ page and documentation.

I doubt if the search will be easy as it is akin to making eggs from an omelette

I'm here but don't know what, if any, I can add to this. I've read through the thread and although I deal in audio this is not in my area of expertise.

I appreciate the invite to the thread. I'll keep tabs on how it progresses.

The forum is accessed via the rightmost tab on the main page Peace Equalizer, interface Equalizer APO / Forum / Forums the general area is probably the best place to start
