POST-INSTALL
1. Add '/usr/lib/ladspa' to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
2. Add the following to your ALSA configuration file:
/etc/asound.conf
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
ctl.equal {
type equal;
}
pcm.plugequal {
type equal;
# Modify the line below if you do not want to use sound card 0.
#slave.pcm "plughw:0,0";
# by default we want to play from more sources at time:
slave.pcm "plug:dmix";
}
# pcm.equal {
# If you do not want the equalizer to be your default soundcard
# comment the following line and uncomment the above line.
# (You can choose it as the output device by addressing it with specific
# apps,eg mpg123 -a equal 06.Back_In_Black.mp3)
pcm.!default {
type plug;
slave.pcm plugequal;
}
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
And you are ready to change your equalizer using command
$ alsamixer -D equal
Note that configuration file is different for each user (until not
specified else) it is saved in ~/.alsaequal.bin. So if you want to use
ALSAEqual with mpd or another software running under different user, you
can configure it using
$ su mpd -c 'alsamixer -D equal'
or for example, you can make a symlink to your .alsaequal.bin in his home.
