CDBbrian Posted February 4, 2014 Share Posted February 4, 2014 I have one simple feature request. Currently, the equalizer sliders no not show numerically what value each slider is set at. I have to infer it by comparing sliders relative to each other, or check by counting how many taps I need to go back to +/- 0 dB. It would be a lot easier to tweak my equalizer settings if the Equalizer UI would display the current numeric value of each slider, ie +7.0dB, -4.0dB. Below is a screenshot of the Equalizer app, showing what I mean. Note how each slider has it's current value shown at the bottom.If this could be added to the UI, that would be great! Possible spots to show the number on the UI include: on top or below each slider, on the slider buttons themselves, in the horizontal slider scroll bar where the current eq-level wave pattern is shown (could ghost/transparent the wave). Thanks! CDBbrian Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDBbrian Posted July 5, 2014 Author Share Posted July 5, 2014 Could you at least confirm that this feature will or will not be considered? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mph Posted June 2, 2016 Share Posted June 2, 2016 That would interest me too! And what is the adjustment in dB? +-10dB or +-20dB? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deraik Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I revive this topic because I think fine tuning is needed. I know I can go up or down 10% by tapping above or below a slider, but I need tuning with 1db precision, and having a numeric reference (or even better, input) would be perfect. If it can't be done how can I do it with other apps? (I don't really want to do that) Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blaubär Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I also would like to see the value of the slider settings, preferrably in unit decibel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrewilley Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 Me too. and there have been quite a few requests for this simple feature over the years. Just a numerical dB value either above/below the slider, or inside the thumb itself, would be very useful. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
luce Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 I think above the sliders would be the best position because it looks clean (as symmetric) and the number is not covered by one’s finger while tweaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blaubär Posted January 16, 2019 Share Posted January 16, 2019 In the meantime: does anybody know what the equalizer changing a step respectively changing to minimum/maximum amounts to in db ? And whether the steps are equidistant when measured in db ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CDBbrian Posted January 18, 2019 Author Share Posted January 18, 2019 Well, I'm happy to see that a lot of people still think my suggestion is a good idea. @blaubär I don't know the answer, hoping someone else does. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tealfox Posted April 22, 2019 Share Posted April 22, 2019 +1 Do you know what is the maximum value in dB for the sliders? Or do you know the value for each step of the sliders? I'm trying to use the presets from the AutoEq project which aim to correct the frequency response of a given set of headphones starting from frequency response measurements. (https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq) An amazing project by the way! Essentially I need to enter a specific value in dB for each slider using the 10 band presets by AutoEq.

christopher_a_johnson Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 For an app that is described as an audiophile quality player, I am shocked that it doesn't have more bands or precise values to select. I bought this app based on a review that said it was the top Android music player for audiophiles. Apparently it was not a thorough review.

maxmp Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Thanks for the feedback. The exact values won’t give much as they are not always exact and may dynamically change around max volume. Though, UI for values is planned feature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently it was not a thorough review If you really and truly want high fidelity, you don't invest so much in the app, but rather in headphones. Then you disable any equalizer and tone settings completely and listen to the music as it is. And that's it, no need to worry about equalizer settings. That said, of course it would be nice to know how much you have to move the slider to correct some not-so-perfect frequency response curve of some not-so-expensive headphones or pc speakers.

U set a set db value when u move the slider, it is then saved as part of the EQ config....it make no difference how that value is treated on the backend....it is still set to that base number, to witch when a user needs to re-set their settings from scratch, really could use. Especially if their device is on the soon to be Released Android Q, as you can not import or export the apps settings. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I too would like to see the values. I think what Max may have meant was the limiter - when it is activated it dynamically changes the volume ( basically a compressor from above with a short attack time ).

andrewilley Posted July 20, 2019 Share Posted July 20, 2019 I think Max meant that pushing the slider right to the top might not always mean an exact dB value, the value (and all other sliders by the same percentage presumably?) might get limited/capped due to level limits. But yes, if the settings file contains a specific number then it would make sense to have that same number shown while you are moving the slider.

andrewilley Posted July 28, 2019 Share Posted July 28, 2019 Individual EQ slider +/- dB values now implemented in build 839, give it a try. Andre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
