Foobar Equalizer Settings

thats nice to hear here. ive been using foobar for a long time now. nice one t.bot!

somehow, the EQ on f00bar is a real crap, compared to other media players

Thanks, I really appreciate it. Nice work fella

Thanks for sharing, nice work. Love the Home Theater preset (Yasmin Meguid sounding great right now!)

thanks for the presets..

If it’s open source, why is it for windows only? What complete laziness on the part of the developers. Good open source software is easily ported to other platforms, thereby not alienating the Linux and Mac users out there. (i.e. those who know a good OS.) My advice: Pass this garbage. I’m sure a better audio player exists on sourceforge.

travis: it’s not open source.

It’s open source. But the code is optimized to run on Windows due to certain reasons this OS is different than others…. As a matter of fact, Mac OS X is based on BSD which I believe is based on Unix. Hence Linux and OS X are sort of… second-cousins. If Windows XP was a **** OS, then why do most people use it? I don’t even see what the big issue with Vista is. Sure, you’ll get 10 FPS less if you run Aero in the background, Windows Indexing Service (or whatever it’s called) and whatever else. Plus it’s got some serious incompatibility right now. But today’s computers can handle it fairly well with 1 GB of RAM.

As for Foobar I can agree that it’s quite a shame to only have it on Windows. It’s one of the few reasons I still use Windows. So far, I haven’t seen anything half as good as FB2K though. Look it up, you will not find anything with half the features. Sure, initially it’s pretty bland. But think of the hundreds of plugins that exist that increase the functionality, written by those who are obviously part of a bigger comunity – the Windows community. It’s pretty easy to use and you don’t have to get into scripting it either, and I’ve found that it looks as simple and streamlined as I want it or as aesthetically pleasing as I want. And I have never, ever seen it use more than 28MB of RAM.

travis: it’s not open source. at least know what you’re talking about before spreading fud. the world does not revolve around open source, 99% of people could care less if software is open source. And before you say you belong to that 1% that is enlightened and able to determine the qualities of an OS, don’t overestimate yourself.

Thanks for these presets, was looking for some and this site was top result in google

@travis: why don’t you port it yourself to other platforms if it’s so easy?

this is the best musicplayer on windows IMO

cheers

Dude, those are amazing. thank you!!!!

Your EQ presets are a dream. My home theater via laptop situation seemed dire, but this was the first page that came up on a google search for “foobar equalizer.” Now that’s what I call accuracy. Thanks dude

Thanx 4 your nice job!

Thanks! These are excellent EQ settings. And, you came up #1 when I Googled “foobar equalizer settings”.

Hi,
Great presets, but i´ve got a doubt (I don´t know if here is the right place to ask): Is it possible to change the appearance of foorbar equalizer?
I have Fofr package installed over foorbar, but the equalizer is exactly the original one.
Thanks in advance

The Car Audio settings is amazingly clear. And that is saying something, considering I strive for crystal clear audio wherever I go. Kudos to you, and thank you for sharing.

the DEATH setting sucks…the rest is real good!!

so thank you for your work!!!!

Thank you! Nice equalizer presets!

Thank you for keeping this bit of work of yours out there and available. You have a lot of great presets in this pack!

Hey thanks… im new to foobar and i really need something like this to get myself some ideas. Its pretty awesome.

Thank you! I’ve been looking for foobar equalizer settings forever.

Thanks man!

Thanks, i really need those presets

Thanks for the presets, the DEATH setting works great for me (just kidden)!

Love the Pop setting with my vast collection of Indie Folk and Shoegaze. Thank you!

Hey, thanks for this. I’m not really good in setting equalizer. Your presets helps a lot.

thank you ive been searching for them all over the net. nicely done

Nice presets. I have been playing around with the drums one, and tweaking off of it. Now maybe I can find some skins for foobar somewhere out there?

thank you; great work!!

Oh man, this is a pretty good set. premaster is probably what I’m after, since I usually change the equaliser to something similar to that. Death’s pretty comical though; the ridiculous overloader I figured it would be, making my PX100s feel like they were going to blow.

Actually I also like Presence, since it’s pretty clear and sounds nice and lifted. Thanks for sharing these man.

Thank you for that one!

These are EXCELLENT! I really didn’t expect much, but they really improve on the basic preset. Especially the Home Theatre setting. Thanks alot.

Thanks man, You’ve done some nice presets, good work.

Loudness in combination with some heavy dubstep is amazing.

Thanks so much for this.

Thanks a lot.
I was looking for such equalizer setting so long.
Great sound.

Thanks for the great work! I had a few presets of my own but they were pretty empiric and intuitive. These presets are a better response to my needs.

Thank you!!

This is just what I needed. Thank you!

Nice one. . Thanx a ton! Loudness seems to suit my setup – Xonar DX + modded MX5021. .

I’m afraid I have to agree with all of the above, these are great! Thanks a lot for sharing your hard work.

Thanks for the settings – they’re really useful!

Thank you very much for sharing your work!
