Can equalizer start on boot?

Open redbrain opened this issue 4 years ago • 4 comments

I've installed the equalizer from the Manjaro repos. I've created a curve for it that I'd like to always be on with my computer. Is there a way to load the equalization at boot or at user login, preferably silently? Thanks in advance.

It should already be loaded on boot as the scripts simply edit the pulseaudio config.

@redbrain: Try running pulseaudio-equalizer enable-config

How to have it enabled on boot then? It seems it is always disabled for me on boot. Is this normal? CHeers

Two solutions:

  1. Edit, for user ~/.config/pulse/default.pa , for system /etc/pulse/default.pa

load-module module-ladspa-sink sink_name=ladspa_output.equalized master=compressor-stereo plugin=mbeq_1197 label=mbeq control=0.0,-2.0,-2.0,-4.0,-4.0,-2.0,4.0,6.0,7.5,7.5,7.5,7.5,4.0,2.0,0.0

( 15 controls/bands)

  1. A script on autostart (/etc/xdg/autostart) , for example :

master=$(pactl get-default-sink)

#mbeq_1197 = ladspa module eq pacmd load-module module-ladspa-sink sink_name=ladspa_output.mbeq_1197.mbeq master=$master plugin=mbeq_1197 label=mbeq control=0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0,0.0
