Hello, In the Message; Subject : Re: We pipewire users can EASILY get better sounds!

I feel piewire uses Bass21, so please install lv2-Bass21 from Multimedia:proaudio. Furthermore, it seems that pipewire uses Surge-XT, which is the most popular synthesizer software for users. I'm not sure which one to use, so please install both lv2-surge-xt and lv2-surge-xt-ft from Multimedia:proaudio. If someone knows which one to use, please let us know. Anyway, I think I've created a filter that allows you to customize pipewire sounds even more, so I've uploaded it https://drive.google.com/file/d/1pZ02UkUfIeY58Z0zvdRqg9vM_ZOGglYq/view?usp=s... [1] Installation method. 1. $ rm -rf ~/.config/pipewire 2, $ unzip -d ~/.config pipewire.zip [2] Usage, 1. Increase the low-frequency loudness - I think this is important. { type = vst3 label = mixer name = mixLFE control = { "Gain = 0.000" }} ↓ { type = vst3 label = mixer name = mixLFE control = { "Gain = 0.200" }} 2. I increased the control variables as follows. { ## control variables "Dry Level" = 80 ## 0-100% "Early Level" = 10 ## 0-100% "Early Send" = 20 ## 0-100% "Late Level" = 20 ## 0-100% "Size" = 30 ## ms "Width" = 100 ## 0-100% "Predelay" = 18 ## ms "Decay" = 1.7 ## s "Preset Browser" = Medium Clear Hall "Diffuse" = 90 ## 0-100% "Modulation" = 30 ## 0-100% "Spin" = 2.0 ## Hz "Wander" = 15.0 ## ms } For more details, please see the following site; https://michaelwillis.github.io/dragonfly-reverb/dragonfly-hall-manual.html There are many variables, but to change the reverb effect, I think it's enough to just change the values of the Dry Level and Late Level, and the Preset Browser. For example, if you want more reverb, you can just choose a Preset Browser, lower the value of the Dry Level, and increase the value of the Late Level. I was impressed by how well the Preset Browser was made, but here are some other options; Bright Room Bright Studio Small Bright Hall Clear Room Clear Studio Small Clear Hall Dark Room Dark Studio Small Dark Hall Percussion Room Percussion Studio Small Percussion Hall Vocal Room Vocal Studio Small Vocal Hall Medium Bright Hall Large Bright Hall Medium Clear Hall Large Clear Hall Medium Dark Hall Large Dark Hall Medium Percussion Hall Large Percussion Hall Medium Vocal Hall Large Vocal Hall In addition, I didn't want to add too many control variables, but I did add the Diffuse, Modulater, Spin, and Wander variables because, as the author says, they make the sound much better definitely. HTH, Best Regards. --- ┏━━┓彡 Masaru Nomiya mail-to: nomiya @ lake.dti.ne.jp ┃＼／彡 ┗━━┛ "During testing, Sakana found that its system began unexpectedly attempting to modify its own experiment code to extend the time it had to work on a problem." -- Research AI model unexpectedly attempts to modify its own code to extend runtime (ars TECHNICA) --
