Easy Effects is an advanced audio manipulation tool. It includes an equalizer, limiter, compressor and a reverberation tool, just to mention a few. To complement this there is also a built in spectrum analyzer.Easy Effects is the successor to PulseEffects. Easy Effects only supports PipeWire's audio server. PulseAudio users should instead use PulseEffects.Because Easy Effects uses the default PipeWire sound server it will work with most, if not all, applications you use. All supported applications are presented in the main window, where each can be enabled individually.Besides manipulating sound output, Easy Effects is able to apply effects to an input device, such as a microphone. This is, for example, useful in audio recording, but it also works well during voice conversations.When Easy Effects is launched it will conveniently remember the configuration used in the last session. It is also possible to save all the current settings as profiles.

Easy Effects

<ul><li>Features:</li><li>The presets menu now asks for confirmation before saving/deleting a preset file.</li><li>Bug fixes:</li><li>The plugin reset should not make its controls innefective anymore.</li><li>Other notes:</li><li>Speex is no longer incorrectly listed as a build dependency (speexdsp is still a build dependency)</li><li>RNNoise is no longer an autodependency. It is now required by default, if not available it must be explicitly disabled with -Denable-rnnoise=false</li></ul>

<ul><li>Features:</li><li>Updated translations.</li><li>Bug fixes:</li><li>A small mistake was done in the last release. Making a new one to make sure people have the right branch in the package</li></ul>

<ul><li>Features:</li><li>The Equalizer "sort bands" feature is now ordering bands on GSettings, so the result can be saved into presets.</li><li>Improved performance when resetting keys.</li><li>Bug fixes:</li><li>Fixed the "Large Empty Hall" preset selection in the Reverberation effect.</li><li>Fixed some misuses of PipeWire's API that can potentially fix some random bugs some users are facing.</li><li>Other notes:</li><li>As we are removing code deprecated by GTK 4.10 the minimum GTK version has been increased.</li></ul>

<ul><li>Features:</li><li>The spectrum plugin update rate was improved. Different sampling rates should lead to similar update frequencies visually.</li><li>The update interval used by level meters and the spectrum can be customized by the user.</li><li>The equalizer band gain slider value can be updated in larger steps. Fine grain control is still possible through the keyboard up/down keys.</li><li>Small improvements to the echo canceller.</li><li>Bug fixes:</li><li>The echo canceller probes were not being linked to the soundcard after the move to multiple filters intances. This should be fixed now.</li></ul>

<ul><li>Features:</li><li>It is now possible to add more than one filter instance to the effects pipeline.</li><li>A new Speech Processor plugin based on the Speex library was added. Besides providing noise suppression it also can detect voice activity. It is a decent alternative to the cases whre the rnnoise library does not work well.</li><li>Improved compatibility with Linux Studio Plugins 1.2.3.</li><li>GraphicEQ presets can be imported into the Equalizer effect.</li><li>The application name has been changed to Easy Effects to adhere to the naming conventions of GNOME Human Interface Guidelines.</li><li>The documentation has been updated.</li><li>Improved presets autoloading.</li><li>The Autogain silence threshold can now be configured by the user.</li><li>Dry and wet controls added to the Stereo Tools effect.</li><li>The echo canceller now has a residual noise suppression control also based on the Speex library.</li><li>Bug fixes:</li><li>When the mouse was hovering over a chart the wrong value for the x axis coordinate was being shown. This regression is fixed.</li><li>Other notes:</li><li>Because of the new multiple instances feature, the preset format has changed, but the old one is still compatible to be loaded. Anyway take in consideration that saving the current preset will always write it in the new format.</li></ul>

<ul><li>Features:</li><li>Multiband Gate implementation has been migrated from CALF to Linux Studio Plugins.</li><li>The preset autoloading code compatibility with bluez5 devices has been improved.</li><li>Wet/dry controls were added for some plugins</li><li>Effect interface is no longer loaded when the related lv2 plugin is not installed on the system.

It allows EasyEffects to ignore streams whose purpose is to monitor sink devices. This will help to fix some of problems our users were having when using OBS.</li><li>The code that shows the stream sample format has been improved</li><li>The rnnoise library is now optional. This should help package maintainers to build a Debian package. See issue 1000 for more information.</li><li>Our logs now show the source code line where the messages are being printed</li><li>Bug fixes:</li><li>The "enable effects" checkbox in our window was not being updated when third party programs like pavucontrol moved the stream away from our virtual devices.

This was fixed.</li></ul>

<ul><li>Features:</li><li>There is a new setting allowing the user to select an inactivity timeout for the pipeline. When no client is playing to or recording from our devices the filters will be unlinked after the timeout is reached. This is done to make sure we do not waste CPU power processing silence.</li><li>The autogain plugin now allows the user to select which of the three loudness are used to calculate the geometric mean.</li><li>The autogain plugin now allows the maximum history to be set and does not use libebur128 histogram mode anymore.
