Simple Equalizer controlable via Gpio?

Hi,

I’d like to have a hardware button, which should be able to cycle through the 3 custom presets of the simple simple equalizer plugin. This way I could have a loudness/bass-boost option without having to click/tap through 5 menues.

The hardware setup is already functional with rotary encoder or the gpio-buttons plugin, but I don’t know a way to activate the equalizer settings.

Is it possible to use the volumio.sh or the curl-api?

Regards,
Phil

hi!
you can’t control the plugin via Gpio. But what you can do is to install the plugin and enable it and associate the hw button to a script sending a command to alsaequal
/usr/bin/amixer -D equal cset numid=[i] x
where i is number for the range from 0 to 9 and x the value to set to this range. Do a loop to fill all the 10 values with what you need. You can check it when you press apply in the equalizer in the console via ssh.

Strike! That’s exactly what I’ve been looking for!

Just tested via ssh:
volumio@volumio:~$ /usr/bin/amixer -D equal cset numid=3 7

numid=3,iface=MIXER,name=‘03. 125 Hz Playback Volume’,device=2
; type=INTEGER,access=rw------,values=2,min=0,max=100,step=1
: values=7,7

immediatly cuts off the 125Hz :smile:

Thanks very much, you made my day!
Your plugin is awesome, Balbuze!
