DSP Manager? - AT&T, Rogers, Bell, Telus Samsung Galaxy S III

Ive been playing with the DSP manager along with PowerAMP and DI Radio. It seems to have no effect on anything audio wise? Is there something im doing wrong, i enable bass boost, i even reboot the phone after and make sure its on, and theres no difference?

Make sure you enable it under sound settings for Music Effects

Uninstall all other "music FX" and other equalization apps. Then reflash DSP manager. Should be good
In power amp disable DAC in settings

Virtuous Unity Sense 3.0 and DSPManager: Compatible and how to install?

Hey
One of the reasons I switched to CM7 is that the audio level output and quality was unacceptable for me on the Desire Z's stock release. CM7 included DSPManager which made the volume alot louder and the sound quality clearer.
My question is that can I install DSPManager on Virtuous Unity Sense 3.0 and if so, how?
Thanks.
If you use the HTC music player, you can turn on SRS WOW and adjust the equalizer (accessed by pressing Menu, and Sound enhancer in the music player). But I'm not clear whether its just for HTC music player, or affects sound in other apps. I assume it just affects the music player.
You should just be able to flash the DSP Manager APK in Gingerbread, according to the post below. But I haven't tried it. Unlike Froyo, where you had to flash some .lib files in Recovery, this should install/uninstall easily. But you can always do a nandroid backup before installing, just to be safe.

There are also a variety of apps on the Market that do similar things. I'm using Volume+, and it works pretty well with Unity. Similar to DSP Manager, you can setup different volume boost and equalizer settings for speaker, bluetooth, and headphones. I agree the volume on the Unity ROM is way too low. Volume+ helps quite a bit for me, but it could still stand to be a bit louder (still not as loud as stock).
I can confirm it works on coredroid. Nandroid and flash it. Might save the trouble waiting for responses

Oops, I linked the wrong one. Here is the one I meant:

On a Gingerbread ROM, all you need to do is download and flash the APK.
Thanks ,it worked ,but it actually makes bass worse :s

What do you mean "worse"? You need to describe your issue better. Not as much bass tone? Try manipulating the equalizer curve.
Volume+ is an app that is similar to DSP Manager. If DSP Manager is still not doing the trick, you might give Volume+ a try. It lets you increase volume, as well as an equalizer, and separate bass level adjustment. It might work better for you. Its a paid app on the Market, but free from the Developer's website:

i have used volume+, dont like it. basically, with CM7, dsp manager makes the bass MUCH more powerful in my Studio Beats, whereas with this dsp manager, it seems to be weaker, and ive tried all of the options.

Want a louder speaker?

DSP manager. Open it open speaker then open the equalizer and put all the bars to the top and make sure you enable the equalizer

The audio output is really low on this device compared to my Samsungs.
Nothing new sound firmware cant fix
Anyone else get a weird whine off of the headphone jack stock?

Not me. I've used a variety of ear phones too
Does this have the possibility of blowing the speakers out over time? On my previous phone, I'm pretty sure maxing out those values borked my headphones.
I seem to have no effect on line out improvement with any of the dsp managers.
Not sure why. Flashing through recovery properly and all...

Make sure your settings look this. If you flashed other stuff it might conflict with the app
Edit: its very hit and miss with the headset volume. Speaker works great though

Go to your settings/sound/Music effects and select dsp manager or whatever else you are using instead of the default MusicFX.
I've found these settings to give some deep and clean bass, similar to Voodoo Sound.
Exactly what my ears like hearing.

Volume boost app for rooted phones

Hey all. I came from the photon 4g. I am looking for an app to boost volume when I play music. Any ideas as to what I can use? Thanks.

I personally like using Volume +. Has worked great for me on every ROM but CM10. didn't seem to make a difference on it :silly:
I have noticed on alot of threads that alot of people like PowerAmp. I myself have never tried it. The is also Awesome beats. Its like Beats audio. Search for it. I would post a link but Im kinda short of time to find it myself. Good luck sir.
PowerAmp is just a music player with a nice built in equalizer, but because it is an EQ, and does not affect tye actual oower output of the hardware, it will eventually cause distortion. I use PA, but I keep the EQ in check and do not use it to make it louder.
Volume+ has always been a terrible thing for me, causing audio skipping and distortion.
Beats is an EQ, and I think it sounds like garbage.
What we need is something like Voodoo sound, like we had on the Epic4G. It is a kernel modification that works at the hardware level to increase power output.

Have you tried speaker boost into he play store? I use it and it makes the sound louder!

Sense sound enhancements on AOKP/MIUI

As I'am listening to music a lot, I can't live without proper EQ + some enhancements to fill it up and make it sound how I want it to. On sense ROMS those several beats presets to choose from together with poweramp EQ and stereoX can make this job done, however on AOKP poweramp can't deliver bass at all, you have to use external AMP to get some, but even then the sound is dull and dead.. Of course you can play around with DSP manager, but it somehow just makes music sound fake, EQ works like a noise/dullness knob (lol) and virtualizer literally screws up the music, it's not even close to what poweramp or sense can do.
So, is it possible to port sense sound enhancer to other ROMS? Or maybe there is something similiar integrated in recent other branded ROMS as well?
If you like beats you could find and try one of the flashable beats zips running around.
you mean this called "awesome beats" ?
I'am afraid it's not what I'am looking for as apparently it sounded just like a renamed bass boost in dsp manager and it doesn't look as it would have anything common with HTC one. I'am looking specifically for beats solo or urbeats Sense presets or anything similiar which I haven't tried yet (maybe Xperia's have some kind of app for that?)
I'm using a miui rom and I've set srs_v sound enhancement through the snd3254 command and sound is really great. Have you tried that?

Can you be more specific?
I use awesome beats v4 with apollo player..I have tried walkman player but somehow it is buggy for me..

Yes, of course.
Open terminal emulator and type snd3254 -dspmode XX where XX is the number of the sound enhancement you want to apply.
To see the list of possible sound enhancements you can run it with 00.
Another option is to download SndUI app from the market. It's a UI for the snd3254 command.
It shows you the list of available sound enhancements and lets you set one.
EDIT: I get the best sound with srs_v_hp or srs_a_hp dspmodes. hp means headphones.

It's kinda interesting how it works, it surely increases treble and gives bass more headroom to DAC clipping but it comes with the price of V shaped EQ (decreased mids), which I'am afraid isn't exactly what I'am looking for.

Yea, that writing depends purely on your rom. On blackout it's "playback_v_headset_srs"
PS. It seems there are some nice Equalizers (+enhancements) in play store, do they work on AOSP/MIUI ROMS? I couldn't get them to work on Sense + poweramp.
I only tried Equalizer app from the market. It works ok but the sound wasn't the best. That's my opinion at least.

How to get max of sound quality for music listening?

Yo,
I like to listen to music, so i'd like to tweak the sound parameters on the phone to my taste.
What can be done in this direction?
Maybe you can recommend me some apps that are good to play with EQ and other sound influenting factors?
Poweramp.
If you mean like full system equalizer, there ain't any good one out there. They tend to make loudspeaker really quiet.
