Eq and tone on or off


Mark Lee

Recommended Posts

Hi. Is there any difference in having the eq set flat or having it turned off, just wanted to check as I have the eq flat and tone at zero with Bluetooth so wondered if there was a difference on or off. Think I know the answer but we'll see how it goes.

Theoretically should not make a difference. But leaving them turned off if you don’t use them can’t hurt. I think the reason to have the on/off is to be able to quickly tell the difference when they are set to something other than flat.

Flat and Disabled should be the same thing to all intents and purposes. The on/off toggle basically allows you to create some EQ settings and enable/disable it in one go without losing the adjustments.

Just to confirm if I set the eq at flat then turn that off this essentially locks it into flat as the only thing I adjust is the tone depending if it's to my hifi or the tablet speaker.

The idea is to have it all flat when Bluetooth to hifi, flat when using a set of headphones plugged into my tablet, rarely used, and adjusting the tone when I use the tablets speakers to listen to music only. Is this not right¿

That'd work, yes.  You can assign different EQ preset profiles for different output methods using the 'Save' function. You'd need to leave EQ on, and assign flat or whatever preset values you want for different devices.

As I don't really use the tablet to play music, ie through the speakers, I think I'm going to turn all the effects off, no eq, tone or limit and hopefully it should keep it basic as possible, all I need the tablet to do is Bluetooth my music library to the hifi with no effects, the tablet acting as a music library only, I might waffle but hey ho that's me.

Sorry to be stupid here but bare with me, I think my age plays a part, but just want to check this is the right way to do it.

Have gone into output, selected opensl and then clicked setting, have turned on the no eq and tone switch to disable them both, as all I want it to do is Bluetooth digital library to hifi with no effects so there's less stuff involved and then in the speaker setting left the no eq or tone switched off so I still get them to show.

Thanks for your time.

Does it sound right? That's all and not confused the matter.

Just want music library, select album, play it with nothing in the way just want it bluetoothed over to hifi nice and flat, this is really the only way I use the app now as a library.

Sounds right then. Set the devices within OpenSL ES to include Bluetooth, then within the individual settings for that BT method choose any options you want such as No Equ/Tone.
