Hello there
I would like to put some sort of equalizer at the end of Breakaway’s processing, because I plan to use it at work (yeah, when you always listen to enhanced sound you cannot revert back). The problem is, I cannot use my studio monitoring headphones because they are closed and I wouldn’t hear my colleagues calling me… So I need to use cheaper, open headphones that dosen’t sound very good at all, unless I use an equalizer (I tried with Winamp). So, what I would need to know is a good equalizer DSP or anything that could be "plugged" just before output. Do you have some good suggestions about that ?
Thanks in advance.
how about… Breakaway Live. 😀 Go into your Settings –> I/O Config and change the "Mode" from "Core 1-4: Broadcast Mode" to "Core 1 Speakers, Core 2-4 Broadcast", and click Finish button at the bottom.
Then when Breakaway Live main window comes back on screen, click Settings and you should see this:
Click on "Parametric Equalizer" and there you go. Don’t forget to save your settings in case you ever need them again, or want to play around with different versions of your correction EQ.
What I do to calibrate is run slow sine-wave sweeps up & down and listen and EQ so that there’s no hills or valleys, and so that no "section" of frequencies (like bass, mids, upper mids, treble) are louder than another. Also don’t forget to give yourself enough "EQ Headroom" to prevent distortion if you’re turning any of the gains up, instead of down. (you’ll probably have a bit of both up & down)
Thanks a lot for the answer 🙂 I always was wondering what was the difference between Broadcast and Speaker. Now here it is… I’ll try it as soon as I get my license.

There’s a relatively complete speaker controller in it, with EQs, totally tweakable dynamic (based on volume control) Loudness, high & low pass filtering (such as for building a cross over), Delay for time alignment, adjustable bass clipping, polarity invert, inject pink noise, source routing, and adjust out gain…. on every output channel. up to 4 stereo pairs. 🙂
