Adding boost in the digital domain can be problematic if the boost
causes digital clipping , which is a very nasty sound. It's unlikely a
3 db boost will make this happen. Using external dvices is alos
problematic in that they tend to change the sound in other ways apart
from the eq. I use a
I like to hear your opinion about your opinion about Inguz software
compared to your hardware solutions.
I think the KRK unit doesn't have an SPDIF output so you have to use
it's built-in DAC, which is probably not a DAC for serious music
listeners but for on-stage purposes. Same for the
I installed the EQ plugin (only) but I can't get it to work on my
Touch.
Installed Silverlight, installed the modified plugin.pm restarted the
server (v7.6) few times...
Everything looks good, I can see and control the equalizer store a
preset etc. but the audio doesn't change.

Just to test functionality of the plugin you could try some REALLY
extreme changes. Fiddling a few dBs around here and there has only a
pretty subtle effect which can easily be overheard.

It can take 30 seconds or so before the effect kicks in. The Task
Manager should show that InguzDSP.exe is running and taking a few
percent of cpu.

Ok, I have found out why it didn't work. I tried it with a MP3 album.
With Flac files I see InguzDSP.exe in the taskmanager, but with MP3's
not.
But it really works very nice. How much 2dB can do!
What do I have to do for MP3's to get it work?

I walked through some manuals, it shouldn't be so difficult.
But it looks like Inguz tools are not developed anymore since a tweak
is necessary to get it to work under windows 7?
Anyway, if I have installed it and it, how do I create a filter curve
with +2dB at 150Hz? The measuring programs
Here's an example of a custom-convert.conf with a highpass filter
applied to flac playback:
Code:
flc flc * *
[flac] -dcs $START$ $END$ -- $FILE$ | [sox] -q -t wav - -t flac -C 0
$RESAMPLE$ - highpass -1 100
You'd probably want to
Hi Bert003,
the entries in convert.conf do not mean that every thing is converted.
They are only rules which will be applied if you want conversion to be
applied. This is what you select in the Advanced/File Types menu. The
standard selections do not do any conversion if it is not necessary,
e.g.

Probably the easiest way in Inguz is to use a 15 band equalizer and
move the 160Hz band up 2db, or you

Inguz will do
Phil,
I read the manual but I think it takes some or much time to set it up.
I share your opinion that the result after proper correction will be
better than without. In my room there is a gap at about 150Hz which
makes music just sound too thin. Probably if I measure the whole room

I once played around with some tone control using sox. I am using Linux
