WOW/SRS audio booster equivalent for Rockbox?

(1/3) > >>

puppetsock:
I have a H320 and tried Rockbox last year. I really liked it, but I missed one important thing: an audio booster like what WOW or SRS is in the original Iriver firmware.

For me, this makes a big difference. Without these filters, the audio just seems weak.

I didn't find anything that "boosted" my music when I had Rockbox installed. Does nobody else miss this?

AlexP:
SRS/WOW themselves are proprietary, and won't appear in Rockbox.  However Rockbox has a custom five band parametric equalizer, along with treble and bass controls.  With those you should be able to tweak the audio to your heart's content.

puppetsock:
I tried, but I couldn't get near the boost that WOW gives me. I've grown quite accustomed to it, but I don't need the EXACT same thing, but something better than what I can do by randomly trying to find it by adjusting equalizers.

markun:
Do you know which feature of SRS you were using?

The iRivers just have WOW if I recall. So playing with stereo width would also help.
