Foobar2000 + MathAudio Room EQ

Posted by Feanor on April 3, 2021 at 09:52:32:
I have successfully integrated MathAudio Room EQ into my Foobar2000 players in both my main stereo and desktop systems. I'm very pleased with the result. The beauty of MA Room EQ for Foobar is that it is free and very easy to use. One-two combo that appeals to this cheap, lazy audiophile.
Heretofore I was using Foobar2000's 'Graphic Equalizer' component which is a relatively simple 31 graphic EQ. However I recently a miniDSP UMIK 1 microphone with calibration files: such a mic is necessary with MA Room EQ and, happily, easy to integrate.

Unfortunately MA Room EQ for Foobar2000 is useless outside Foobar as one might suppose. Obviously this makes it useless if you need (Windows) system-wide EQ; nowadays this means it can't be used with streaming providers such as Tidal. But note that MA Room EQ comes in a VST versions that can be used with other players and may streamers that allow VST plugins; the VST version is not free unfortunately.
