Computer Audio Output EQ Control Software?
Hi everyone.
I apologize if this is an inappropriate question for this group but this forum seems to be closest to what I seek. If I'm in the wrong place, can anyone advise of a better forum for this question? I just bought a 3-speaker system for my WinXP-SP2 computer -- two desktop satellite speakers with a subwoofer for the floor. Plug n' play worked great and all is operational but not quite ideal -- the bass is overwhelming compared to the side speakers. I am wondering if there is a software tool that will allow me to adjust overall computer sound output so I can shift the low and high end signals into a more acoustically pleasing arrangement. At volume 2 of 10 the bass is fine but you can't hear much mid- or high-end on the satellite speakers. At volume 5 of 10 the side speakers can finally be heard but subwoofer bangs/knocks and the pounding noise is just too much to bear. It is an office about 12' x 15' and is set up in one corner. I have played with the subwoofer placement and room acoustics to minimize the pounding resonance but it still is overwhelming. Ideally, I would be able to cut half the signal to the subwoofer OR be able to boost the signal by two-fold to the satellite speakers. Is that a software tool that will do this? Even better, is there a shareware or freeware application? I am not recording or processing sound in any way -- just playing standard from-the-store music CDs in Windows Media Player v9. System is WinXP-SP2. The 26 watt speaker system is a Cyber Acoustic CA-3095 http://www.cyberacoustics.com/go/to-cn.en/index.cfm?fuseaction=products&brand=Cyber%20Acoust ics&category=Speakers&model=CA%2D3095R%2Dcw. When I pull up the control panel for my Conexant AMC Audio card the sound control section lets me pick an overall volume and an 'Advanced' button lets me separately adjust the volume for various aspects (microphone, midi, SW synth, etc.) and another 'Advanced' button shows me an interface that suggests I could individually control bass and treble ... but they're grayed out and not movable. Any recommendations or pointers from this group? All advice is appreciated. Thanks in advance. - Sheldon, going deaf fast |
