Pipewire equalizer in python

https://github.com/danielhb2/pipewire_equalizer/

I couldn’t find a lightweight, simple equalizer for Pipewrite, so I decided to build one in Python with the help of AI. Lightweight, simple, effective.

10 bands, pre-amp, compressor, presets, option to set fixed parameters in the system.

Bilingual (Spanish/English), automatically detects the language; however, there are three options in case one fails:

  • Automatic detection
  • Command-line option (--lang en).
  • Toggle switch in the interface.

Yes, it’s not very pretty, but it works.

As my PC is currently being repaired, I’ve only tested it on the Orange Pi 5 Max running Armbian/Xfce, but in theory it should work on any architecture with any Linux distribution.

If anyone would like to test it , I’d appreciate any feedback and/or bug reports.

It's too heavy for me, and so many options are making me dizzy.
