  1. That's unfortunate, I see it's not a Poweramp issue then. I'm using a Galaxy S20 (SM-G981B/DS) with Android 11, latest update
  2. The audio switches fine (it's the only device connected). But PA insists on using the previous EQ preset. I can change it manually, but when the next song plays, it'll switch back again. Or whenever I choose a song. It switches itself back. The only solution is closing + reopening PA, a few times, until it finally chooses the right preset automatically. (assigned to the playback device)
  3. For me, Poweramp just doesn't switch to a new device. I get home, use my headphone amp, and it doesn't switch to the assigned preset. It insists on using the Bluetooth Sony preset from before. I have to close + reopen Poweramp about 3 times until it wants to switch over.
  4. And it's so jarring. You're just enjoying the music, the next track comes on, and suddenly there's treble attacking your ears at high volume. Not very relaxing or calm. It's a total pain to keep changing EQ back while Poweramp wants to screw it up.
  5. @MotleyG It's not really the volume. I'll give an example - you want a bass cut and treble boost for most Sony over-ears. But for Beyerdynamics, you definitely DON'T want a treble boost. They'll fry your ears with treble hah
  6. It could be; I'm using a Galaxy S20 with Android 11. I'm pretty sure it was fine until some months ago? Maybe it's the Android 11 update, but I can't be sure.
  7. For me it happens regardless. I can use my BC3 at home, sometimes it chooses the Sony preset and refuses to change (until restarting). Next day, I leave the house, then wear my Sony's while out. And it might start choosing the BC3 preset. It's unpredictable
  8. I was just about to report a similar bug (for the second time, my first one had no response). It seems that Poweramp can't detect devices properly. I have to fully close the app, then re-open (sometimes twice), before it detects the current Bluetooth device. Otherwise, it will keep switching back to the wrong EQ preset. I can tell it's a detection thing - when it's having this issue, I can hold down an EQ preset and hit "Assign". Under "Bluetooth", it will show the wrong device name which isn't connected. E.g. I have my Sony headphones paired, but in the 'assign' section, it only shows "Topping BC3" under Bluetooth. It will also keep switching to the BC3 assigned preset, every new track, instead of the Sony preset.
  9. build-911-arm64-play (911004-cb218340). Samsung Galaxy S20 (SM-G981B), Android 11 I'm having a frustrating issue. I've used Poweramp for years but this only recently started happening. While listening, it randomly changes the EQ preset. I have 4 assigned presets; one for Phone Speaker, and 3 for various Bluetooth devices. But it's stopped choosing the correct preset, and seems to jump between them randomly, often in the middle of songs. It's really jarring, and if I change it back, it will still switch again. The presets all have the assigned device name under them, This happens with no devices paired (using phone speaker), or with 1 Bluetooth device paired. I never connect multiple at once.
  10. So, I'm an audio enthusiast/musician with a few different headphones, DACs and amps. Poweramp is my main music app. But I've always been conflicted with DVC; whether I want to enable or disable it. It seems to have VERY different effects, based on my amps or headphones. For example, my 1000Xm3's sound more bassy and bloated with DVC on. I have to EQ the bass much lower. However, with a full headphone amp and DT 1990's, it sounds very 'shallow' and bright with DVC on. There's no body or bass, but detailed treble. With DVC off, it sounds fuller/more punchy, but also quite muddy. It's a drastic difference. With an underpowered amp/dac, it sounds best with DVC on. It's full and warm, with good treble. Now, there shouldn't be such a big difference. Through my PC with WinAmp, both these amps sound identical (as they should). I'm just so confused. DVC has the opposite effect with different headphones. Is it something about controlling the DAC directly?
