    Equalizing software?

    I spent a minute or two searching, couldn't find anything on this though, so if it's there, please point me in the right direction. I have a decent computer, didn't build it myself, it's a Gateway 610xl. Anyway, I'm looking at building a couple 2-way bookshelf speakers to play music from it. I'll use the computer's outputs to an amp, through a crossover, to the speakers. Anyway, my question is about software. Is there any software to adjust the signal as it leaves my computer, to equalize out any frequency bumps or curves? It seems like this should be possible. Thanks for the help.

    Winamp has an equalizer - useful if you are playing back MP3's
    You might also look at a few sound card manufacturers to see if the soundcard supports an eq curve that gets imposed on all sound sources
    try http://www.soundblaster.com

      Most sound applications have graphic equalizers at 1 octave settings or so (WMP, SoundBlaster, etc). The problems is graphic equalizers can only adjust certain frequencies and each frequency adjustment has a finite bandwidth. Most of the time, the frequencies that cause problems in our listening rooms are not the same ones the graphic equalizers can adjust. Even if they were, the inability to change the bandwidth of the adjustment (i.e. only adjust 57-62 Hz instead of 50-70Hz) creates more problems than it solves.

      I think what you are looking for is a PC based parametric EQ, which I do not think exists.
