How to set EQ in real-time, externally?
« on: August 01, 2013, 10:48:49 AM »
I'm sure I'll misuse terminology, so please correct me as long as you can answer the question or offer alternative suggestions.  This is an avsforum/head-fi.org type of question for rockbox, and you all would know best.

I used Rockbox many years ago, on my ipod 4th gen, and enjoyed it.  I've finally convinced myself to step away from the scroll wheel and bought a Sansa Clip+ and put Rockbox on, and it's great.  I really appreciate having an equalizer, as well.

What I'd like to do with my equalizer, is have a faster way to make EQ adjustments in real-time.  For instance, if I had a replicated screen of my Clip+ on my computer and could use my mouse to quickly move through and change EQ parameters (rather than fumbling through the Sansa buttons, and the song's tune changing before I can audibly hear band2 too high/low/perfect; band4 too low/perfect), that would help me tune more easily and accurately.  Is there a way, similar to using telnet for network hardware, to manage the Clip+ in real-time and not disturb its playback function, to adjust the EQ externally?  Not literally using telnet, obviously, or like using adb with android...something like those, though.  Catch my drift?  Is there any better approach/suggestion (creating and loading 400 EQ presets and swapping is not appropriate) anybody has to enable faster tuning of the EQ to the sound environment?

Thanks for reading my strange question =)

You can run the Sim on PC but the interface will be similar to on device. There is no way to remotely control the player.
