Frequently Asked Questions

Which options should I select before starting a session?

Starting Band Gain Q Factor Filter Type
3 6 1.0 Peak & Dips

These are the default options suggested by Harman's 'How to Listen'.
eqTrainer uses the same value by default, and these are the recommended settings for general users.

If you are a beginner, try increasing the 'Gain' value to make the difference more noticeable.

Troubleshooting

Sound is not playing properly

eqTrainer supports several audio backend libraries for different operating systems.

Windows MacOS Linux Android iOS
WASAPI Core Audio ALSA AAudio Core Audio
Jack OpenSL ES
PulseAudio

Choosing a different audio backend may solve the problem.

Go to 'Settings' - 'Developer Settings' - 'Audio API' and select the desired audio backend.
If multiple APIs are selected, the one at the top of the list will be used.
