Ubuntu 17.10 Artful : lightweight system wide equalizer?

[ClarusAD]

Hello all,

With previous version of ubuntu, i used pulseaudio-equalizer with which I was very satisfied. But with ubuntu Artful (17.10) it no longer works.

I tried 2 solutions founded on askubuntu.com : downgrade pulseaudio-Eq as mentioned here then a second one here whith libasound2-plugin-equal an equalizer in Alsamixer.
Neither of them worked.

The last one : PulseEffects work but it consumes about 40% of my processor ressources ! While pulseaudio-equalizer was very tranparent.

Have you some advices ?
Thanx

Hi @ClarusAD. Search here, there’s been some discussion but I can’t say how lightweight any are. Here is a recent example.

PulseAudio Equalizer randomly goes to full volume

Not only that, it creates the weirdest sounds out of whatever is playing at the time. Startling, but kind of entertaining. But I'd really like suggestions re how to figure out what's going on

Nope, this didn’t help me
