So I was wandering what is causing this. I had the theory that alsamixer could check that the signal was clipping and this is why it intervened. But the same occurs if I start from a low baseline. The sliders have a governing curve, sometimes more abrupt, sometimes more soft than what my inputs a

I have the 0-100 range with all sliders set to 66 as zero position. Here is what happens if I dial in my values. 1) I set the 10 band equalizer to 66 66 68 68 66 65 64 62 64 66 2) I hit save 3) Page reloads after saving, but no reboot yet 4) Slider values changed to 64 64 68 68 63 63 62 63 64 )

WARNING: ALSA can do your head in. Generally speaking, range settings in ALSA can be all over the place, and probably not 0% to 100%. IIRC the alsamixer and pCP web interface are mapping an ALSA range to a percentage, thus rounding errors occur. ---

Is there any way to see something like this: https://media-cdn.ubuntu-de.org/wiki/attachments/12/28/alsamixer.png and which command via SSH brings me there? I find it complicated that in my browser, the set values for 10 band equalizer, after saving (and also when I hit "test"), change slightly.

Hey Paul, is there more information on what the module is doing, how it behaves and what happens when we push a button? I have made the experience that my DAC clips when I enable alsa 10 band equalizer without lowering the digital volume to 90%. But when I first made this experience, after some t

Yes, that is the correct page for the caps library. And it looks like the library is not reporting db back to alsa, so it's not displayed.I would think it would then be a linear control, but I'm not 100% sure. piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM. Homepage: https://www

Paul - thanks for the reply but that doesn't seem to work for me. I tried with the following command, sudo alsamixer -D equal It displays the equaliser bands but the labels are in the 0-99 range with the default values showing as 66. I wonder if I've stumbled across the answer on this page - h

run alsamixer and select the -equal output device. It should show you software db values. It's hard to do a HTML slider in db (Which is why we just do 0-100) piCorePlayer a small player for the Raspberry Pi in RAM. Homepage: https://www.picoreplayer.org Please 'donate' (https://www.paypal

I've enabled the equaliser option and it's working, but can someone please explain what adjustment units it uses? I want to try out some headphone equaliser settings that use the common frequency band decibel gain values, e.g. +3.0 dB or -2.2 dB, but the adjustment values in the equaliser range f
