Invoke pequalizer for system wide sound

Post by amethyst »

This is for those using pequalizer with ALSA. The command to activate the equalizer system wide (not only for a specific application) is as follows:

Code: Select all

pequalizer -s

Very useful for online streaming.

Notes:
1. You can run the command in terminal or make a script.
2. Run the command after desktop is loaded completely otherwise it may not work. Anyways - if you find that the equalizer has not been invoked when you play a youtube video for instance, close your browser and run the command again.
3. Running the command does not bring up pequalizer's GUI. To change the equalizer settings, run pequalizer from menu.
