Missing gain import when using the AutoEQ database #188

Open randshell opened 3 months ago

randshell commented 3 months ago

Hi,

first, thank you for this amazing project!

I'd like to report a bug / improvement that affects the AutoEQ feature on the Graphic EQ tab. This import updates the EQ graphic, but it does not change the post gain to a negative value. This instruction can be found on the AutoEQ project when visited directly.

For example, on this result the recommended pre-amp is of -6.4dB. Without this negative gain, so just by importing the AutoEQ result from the database, I've found for some frequencies to be more distorted, which I've noted especially in the bass.

As a solution, I'd like to suggest to either import automatically the post gain / preamp and set it in the Bass/Misc > Limiter/Master tab or, otherwise, to inform the user about manually setting the gain value.
