to this day, I still don't understand how I peaked at a tutorial produced in an afternoon. Anyways, ERRATA: At around 17:11, the band 2 slope should either be a Low shelf filter, or Low shelf filter (Q as slope). I used Low shelf filter (dB as slope), which is INCORRECT. Thanks for watching!
@user-vi3tb3bw5t3 жыл бұрын
It is the best tutorial on youtube. Except for one thing. You are actually using the incorrect filters, and it changes the sound. You are using the slope in db low shelf filter when you are just supposed to be using the first low shelf filter on the list.
@nghiaagent3 жыл бұрын
@@user-vi3tb3bw5t just checked, we're both wrong. The correct filter is "low shelf filter (Q as slope)", further below the list.
@user-vi3tb3bw5t3 жыл бұрын
@@nghiaagent Both low shelf and q as slope filters are the same actually. According to Oratory on his subreddit, the only difference is the q as slope allows for altering the q value, but he uses the exact same slope value as the default slope.. So both are correct, just not the slope in db filter lol.

@@nghiaagent One interesting thing of note however, Oratory also just recently updated his presets, and added an "optimum hifi curve" that actually sounds a LOT like using the harmon preset with the wrong filter...Like almost exactly lol.

I tried this with my Sony Wh-1000Xm3. They were so so so bass heavy out of the box. And in the search of finding the solution, I came across the oratory1990 presets. Now my Xm3 sound incredible. I can't believe that this headphones could sound this good. And still can't understand why sony made it sound this bad out of the box. You should definitely try this out for your headphones. I don't think this presets work that great with in-ears but if anyone has a different experience tell me.

@@romainprovost7164 Keep in mind if you are used to the bass heavy sound of the xm3, you will find this lacking bass at start. Use this for a week without going back and then compare. 1. Download and install the wavelet app from playstore play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.pittvandewitt.wavelet&hl=en_IN 2. Open app and open menu by pressing three button icon on top right and select legacy mode(I also turn on reduced clipping. It increases the sound quality but also increases latency.) 3. Connect your headphones and wait until wavelet app detects it. You can see the device name in your wavelet notifications. 4. Download 'Sony WH-1000XM3 GraphicEQ.txt' from this folder drive.google.com/drive/folders/1ntIsJ8XP1qlrvl6fj4wQ3l1CqddXEHMR 5. It will download in the downloads folder I am assuming. 6. Now go back to your wavelet app Select AutoEq > Headphone model and then import on the bottom left. And search and import 'Sony WH-1000XM3 GraphicEQ.txt' you downloaded earlier. Once imported tap headphone model again and then search for 'GraphicEQ' and select 'Sony WH-1000XM3 GraphicEQ'(that should be your only search result) 7. Now go to the home of app and turn on AutoEq toggle. And you're done. This settings will only apply when you're connected to your Xm3s and not any other devices. So you don't have to come back and change the settings every time.

First of all, i must admit i don't get how all this works, exactly. I'm planning to buy Audeze LCD-2C/LCD-2f, i want to use them with my laptop + Topping a30pro amp and d30pro dac and i only want to eq those headphones, nothing else - now, here's my question/s: 1) I guess in the Configurator window during installation process for Eq Apo, one of the options will be if i want to use Apo for Headphones + captured device will be Topping d30pro dac, right?? If yes and i choose this option, my future EQs for headphones will only work, when dac is on? If dac is off EQ won't be active? 2) If i create EQs for my headphones and then want to use those headphones without any EQ would it be possible by just choosing Equalizer default in Peace list of EQs i created? 3) If i use my headphones on some other devices elsewhere, sound signatue of the headphones wlll be Audeze's factory sound signature from the box, right? 4) If i turn off dac, and use some other headphones straight out of my laptop's jack, there will be no EQ? Thank you very much for you possible answers. it would help me a lot.
