Easy Effects: Audio effects for PipeWire applications

I recently switched form pulse to pipewire specifically in order to use easy effects. I have to say the results are incredible. It's almost too distracting to listen music now since there is greater resolution of sound. I loved the custom community presets and the per-device profile. Fantastic so far. Thanks

Have you tried looking up Oratory1990 profiles for your headphones? 10/10 would recommend.

Can you explain what you mean by "greater resolution of sound"? Which effect(s) are you using?

It always depends on your preference and music type.

I listen to electronic music with a 250 ohm DT990 on a Dell soundbar using cystalizer, bass boost and bass enhancer. IIRC the order matters.

Prior to this I let my amp handle this but I kicked it out because of 35W standby and Easy Effects doesn't work with it on an HDMI connection - constant signal cutoffs for 3s (Linux issue). Without Easy Effects the soundbar sounds awful to me. Still impressed that it drives 250 ohms this well.

Yes, the order matters! It applies them in order, one after the other, so you either enhance the boosted bass, or boost the enhanced bass, if you will.
