PA-CEQ

PA-CEQ or Poweramp Community Equalizer is a community driven equalizer for Poweramp, Poweramp Equalizer (not a app) and other devices which that improves audio fidelity of songs.

PA-CEQ 3.0 is out! Check it out now in the Releases section!

Why make PA-CEQ? You do know this was answered a long time ago on XDA.

Yes. I actually used that preset before making PA-CEQ but something felt off about it. I prefered a non-bass and non-treble based preset and there wasn't a estimated dB range for that preset long ago so it was up to a guess to determine the EQ numbers. PA-CEQ is based on the same preset with some major changes.

How do I install PA-CEQ?

  1. Go to Releases and download the latest version of PA-CEQ.

For PA-CEQ 1.0 - 2.1:

  1. Choose either the Normal or Apple DAC preset and copy the values to Poweramp, Poweramp Equalizer or your device.

    Please read the Read First.md file in the folder before configuring over the difference between Normal and Apple DAC.

For PA-CEQ 3.0 and above:

  1. Copy the values within the screenshot to Poweramp or your device or import the preset files to Poweramp/Poweramp Equalizer.

    You may either use the screenshot in the PA-CEQ 3/3.01 folder or import it via the Poweramp Equalizer preset inside For Poweramp Equalizer (PA-CEQ 3) or PA-CEQ 3 (Old)/For Poweramp Equalizer (PA-CEQ 3.01).
