[Q] CM 12.1 Equalizer

I have Viper installed and also dissbled the AudioFX from CM 12.1
However it appears Kodi upon boot triggers equalizer for both viper if turned on and AudioFX.
When I quit Kodi Equalizer is not active,in Lolipop on my note4 I had to disable samsungs own EQU and then I could use my own.
I assume it would be the same but what would be default EQ? would it be the AudioFX even if it's off?
EDIT: AudioFX is off and again upon quitting Kodi EQU goes off (I use Tune In Radio Pro) to stream some radio stations.

Hi, I don't have an answer to your question, but could explain how you got Viper working? Thanks!

Viper4android For Lava Pixel V1 And other Android One Devices [LP/MM]

As You All Know viper4android is one of the best Android sound Management and Enhancement App And it works bug free on lava pixel v1 and Android one devices running 4.4 to kitkai to 6.0 Marshmallow
Features
ViPER4Android FX
FX is the main control panel of ViPER’s Audio with all popular ViPER’s Audio settings.
ViPER4Android XHiFi (Stopped)
XHiFi has less settings compare to FX. It has superior audio reconstruction which mainly used for restoring lossy audio quality.
FX Key Features
★ NEW: AnalogX ★
Richer and warmer sound by simulating the sound signature of pure class A amplifier. *v2.4.x and above+*
★ ViPER-DDC (Now Cuztomizable!) ★
Enjoy near HIFI sound on your headphones. *Not all models supported*
★ Spectrum Extension ★
Make your music sound lossless with enhanced high frequencies.
★ x86 Platform Support ★
Viper4Android supports x86 (Atom/Core i3/i5/i7) platforms.
★ USB/Dock effect Support ★
ViPER4Android supports USB/Dock audio output.
★ Speaker Optimization ★
First effect for speakers. Try it yourself.
★ Channel Pan ★
Controls left/right channel output. Its not very useful unless your headphone is imbalance or faulty one side. It will be a cure for you.
★ Differential Surround / Haas Effect ★
This is an old feature which ViPER520 had removed from FX in early days.
But after many users requesting it, ViPER520 bring it back to FX
More info on Haas Effect: http://www.mixcoach.com/creating-dep...haas-effect-2/
★ ViPER Fidelity Control ★
★ ViPER Bass ★
With different bass modes, you can have greater bass experience than before!
★ ViPER Clarity ★
With the latest Clarity mode selection, you can balance up heavy bass with high clarity audio that you can never imagine before!
★ Headphone Surround+ (VHS+) ★
With this VHS+, V4A made its way to achieve great surround technologies for Android.
★ Auditory System Protection (Cure Tech+) ★
With normal audio system, listening for more than three hours will feel fatigue, dizzy, tinnitus, irritated and other symptoms.
This is a normal reaction, heavy bass and high volume could cause permanent damage to the human auditory system, but other phenomena can restore through resting.
Viper as a listening experience professional will not ignore this problem. Therefore put a lot of effort to study how to make a "Healing" sound technology, just a small success. But thinking on how to let users experience it.
★ Convolver ★
When an Impulse Response Sample(IRS) is loaded, V4A will process the sound to show the same characteristics of the loaded sample. Through Convolution, samples with effects such as equalizer, surround, reverberation, tube etc can be loaded.
Download and extract IRS files to <storage>/ViPER4Android/Kernel/<paste files here>
★ FX Compatible Mode (Only in 4.x) ★
Compatible Mode supports large variety of music players and the players' own EQ/sound effects (system-provided/third party)
Therefore, you don't have to select V4A in Sound Settings > Music Effects, choose anything other than V4A. Just run V4A app and the effects will be working with anything else.
1. In option, switch to Compatible Mode. Reboot, done.
2. In Sound Settings > Music Effects, choose other than V4A.
3. Run V4A app and configure the settings then the effects will work together with the one you chose in Sound Settings.
Installation

@DHARMESH17 which one is better viper or Dolby Atmos

[FEATURE REQUEST] AudioFX like audio eq control app inbuilt

There is no eq apps built in. Since I came from cm and was so addicted to the audiofx on cm, I miss that feature.
It would be nice if PA had such an option. Maybe the DFX audio Enhancer available for Windows like software with high quality eq settings fidelity surround and bass boost. :good:

Improving sound quality, HD music players with lockscreen support

[ I've decided to rewrite the original description to make it more like a guide (since already I've found few interesting things ]
P8 Lite is quite ok in terms of hardware to make it nice music player. However comparing to old and rusty Samsung Galaxy Ace2 its sound quality is worse.
According to the tests (and hours of tests/comparisons I performed with two different high quality headphones) P8 Lite is only slightly worse but its main issues are significant stereo crosstalk and strangely boosted parts of middle tones.
http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_p8lite-review-1280p7.php
http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_galaxy_ace_2-review-786p5.php
While EMUI 4.0 update introduces DTS which can be enabled and helps in terms of crosstalk it does very strange thing - boosts bass and treble but decreases some middle tones thus some tracks appear to sound kind of awkward and unacceptable.
Another thing is I wanted to also benefit from the HUAWEI lockscreen (I have linked my phone with corporate account which enforced me to have the pin lock on the huawei lockscreen and because of this - having additional lockscreen was not an option for me).
Other things to be considered while trying to find a good player were: folder play (I have my stuff well organized), nice widgets, good audio quality, ui that won't make me wanna throw the phone out of the window while using it
To keep the description clean I would mention only players which are significantly better and other tweaks I've used to make the audio quality better (actually - given the hardware limitations of P8 Lite - to be as close to Ace2 as possible).
Test base:
P8Lite with Marshmallow 6.0 Stock EMUI 4.0 B564
Players which performed very well in terms of quality without any hacks/flashes/blackmagic
- MyPlayer++ (lots of configuration options in terms of audio quality, nice widgets, no huawei lockscreen support) http://forum.xda-developers.com/android/apps-games/app-myplayer-lightweight-music-player-t2892233
- DroidSound-E (only if DTS was enabled, may also be true for other music players based on BASS library, awful widget (need thirdparty widget like PlugInMusic Player), no huawei lockscren support) https://github.com/droidmjt/Droidsound
- PowerAMP beta (as suggested by @Zero_Rik) (audio quality and configuration capabilities comparable to MyPlayer++, nice widgets (configurable), HUAWEI LOCKSCREEN SUPPORT (hurray!) http://forum.powerampapp.com/index.php?/forum/18-poweramp-v3-testing/
Players which I don't like but do have huawei lockscreen support:
- Huawei Music Player (you didn't expect this one? )
- Google Play Music
After playing around with various players still I was unhappy with the sound quality (although PowerAMP at least apart from good overal quality introduced the lockscreen support). Also I wanted the sound to be similar across all applications therefore I did not want to use PowerAMPs equalizer.
Solution #1 - Dolby Atmos ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/themes-apps/dolby-dolby-atmos-t3305789 )
Instalation was simple (flashing two packages in a row) but required recovery to be exchanged from stock to TWRP.
Once installed Dolby Atmos was working more or less fine but did not work in any way possible with PowerAMP.
Uninstallation is possible by flashing third package. Worked nice though for DroidSound-E
Solution #2 - DSP Manager from CyanogenMod ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...alizer-dsp-manager-lollipop-versions-t3106546 )
Installation was simple (again two packages). No straightforward uninstall (so I've made OS backup in TWRP).
This time audio quality was really really (tested in DroidSound-E and PowerAMP)
Solution #3 - Viper4Droid (did not test this one but people say its good
Please note that flashing another recovery over existing (installing TWRP) will prevent you from updating system to any further updates (unless you reflash your original stock recovery partition).
Also worth noting that custom DSP (Atmos or DSP Manager from CM or Viper4Droid) may not work for some music players!

Or easly use Beta programm of of Poweramp

Thanks for the hint. Although it is a partial answer to my question I'll take a look on PowerAmp Beta (I remember to have some issues with PowerAmp trial).
It also does not cover the problem with Huawei lockscreen support but anyway worth checking at least in terms of the audio quality.
Edit [few minutes later] : Well... actually it does the job! THANKS! PowerAmp Beta seems to be quite a decent choice.
Most of the stuff I wanted is working flawlessly. The difference between P8Lite now+PowerAmp AND my old Ace2 is now less noticeable.
And furthermore - this BETA PowerAmp uses the EMUI lockscreen!!!
Edit [few hours of tests later]: PowerAMP seems to be so far the best choice in terms of usability and audio quality. Unfortunately still Ace2 sounds a bit (but easily noticeable) better (at least with same headphones attached). This seems to be hardware related (as per the gsmarena tests) and nothing more can be done here. Anyway - the sound quality with PowerAMP can be really good.

not a lot of music player support lockscreen on our p8lite... to name a few that works are Default Music Player, Google PlayMusic (they both support defult lockscreen controls) and MusixMatch (it has its own lockscreen control)..
I guess it shows the lockscreen controls of only those music player ( that has its own lockscreen control ) ...
P.S. MusixMatch is quite good of an option too... It has its own equalizer, lockscreen controls and quite decent sound quality too

My goal was to find something which work with Huawei LockScreen as I don't need to have two lockscreens enabled (and due to the company policy enforced on my mobile I need to have password set on Huawei LockScreen so its pointless to have two separate lockscreens
Anyway - if it works for anyone else why not to try ones with separate lockscreens and disable the Huawei one?

I've just installed TWRP and flashed Dolby Atmos ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/p8lite/themes-apps/dolby-dolby-atmos-t3305789 ).
With DTS enabled, Surround OFF, Volume Leveler OFF, manualy made preset in equalizer I was able to achieve quite good audio quality in any music player now.
...unforunately this setup does not work properly with PowerAMP Beta....... (PowerAMP seems to output directly audio instead of using external equalizer even though the "MusicFX" is enabled in PowerAMP and its configuration open properly Dolby Atmos).

Fortunately I found this ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/goo...alizer-dsp-manager-lollipop-versions-t3106546 ) , uninstalled Dolby Atmos and installed DSP Manager (from CM). That one is working really good ))

I don't really like DSP manager, V4A is way better in my opinion.

I will try to fix the Bluetooth in next updates. But working only with poweramp that shouldn't happen. If you have audio mods or audio fx uninstall that. And provide log

Just for Xperia music

I have an Samsung S6 Exynos and an LG P880 both with Nougat.
Does SoundEnhancement really works? I mean the EQ settings or Clearaudio+ or the VPT Effects like Studio?
I got this if I unpack zip file on PC:
Xperia.X.Musix.by.MAdMiZ.zip: Checksum error in XPORT\Supported\vendor\libaudioalsa.so. The file is corrupt
Xperia.X.Musix.by.MAdMiZ.zip: The archive is corrupt
unpacked on Smartphone the file libaudioalsa.so is not unpacked

after install whatsapp or cam record the sound is mute...and on V2 audio setting turn on DSEE HX...surround sound clearAudio+ nothing to change...

Can I install it on my Mate 9. I have viper4android, do I need to uninstall it first or just turn it off or uninstall the driver but leave the apk.
I have Sony MDR-1000x, will this mod enable LDAC Bluetooth codec?
