About

Per-Device EQ applies a parametric equaliser directly inside the real PipeWire sink, so every output device — speakers, a Bluetooth headset, a USB DAC — keeps its own correction. The EQ is written as an in-node filter graph, with no extra virtual sink in the audio path, and is restored automatically by a WirePlumber hook: it survives reboot and device reconnect with no background process of your own running. Features: - One saved correction per output device, applied and restored automatically - Interactive editor with a frequency-response graph, per-channel bands and a preamp - Import REW and AutoEQ filters; export and reuse profiles - Applies to every application, including pro-audio tools that open the device directly
