Equalizer?

[BabyHuey]

A built in EQ would be the one thing to make me abandon my current music player.

A parametric with a couple of movable points, variable q, and adjustable hpf and lpf would be awesome
(please not a graphic eq with pretend sliders uggh)

Hey!

Right now there are no immediate plans for an EQ, but it's on the list of things to implement and I agree it would be nice to have, but completely optional, like all DSP in Resonic is, to not meddle with the pure signal flow unless specifically wanted by the user.

Either way a preset slider graphic EQ would be out of question as it does nothing but degrade sound quality on basically all but extremely cheap sound "systems". It would have to be a basic parametric one for sure to make sense with what we're trying to do with Resonic. The whole point of an EQ in a player should be a way to tweak sound for lower class sound systems, or for special cases like night use, which can never be designed in a generic band way.

In Pro version, an EQ might be a tool to experiment with and forge samples, adding a first pass of DSP before sending it to a DAW.

Good point, although users might prefer their favorite VST plugins which frankly would also be higher quality.

[A1RO]

I agree. Not a must for me, but more like a handy, easy thing to reach.
I will let the OP clarify its use case since I might be going somewhere else.

[BabyHuey]

...but more like a handy, easy thing to reach.

Exactly this. I am using Resonic for learning songs, so a quick EQ to roll off the high end to emphasize the bass, or a "dialed in" high boost bring out the hi-hats is the type of thing I need.
Even better if the EQ settings could be saved with a button to apply them again.

I agree with Tom and A1RO
On this feature. It would be better to manage VST that allows you to use the equalizer of your choice.

What can nevertheless be interesting is to manage snapshots or states mapped on keyboard shortcuts, to be able to switch quickly from one
state has another. It remains to be seen

But for learning songs as you want, imho, for the use you want to do. You will have a better experience on your DAW

I don't think you understand my use case well enough to make suggestions.

sorry maybe I don't get it, this mean that you need a 5 band graphic eq ?

Yes, a built in five band graphic would be more suitable than using a DAW as an mp3 player. Of course a simple parametric would be better.

[LopDog]

I understand better, it's true that most mp3 players have this option. Given Tom's answer, if this feature is in the list, it will definitely be a parametric equalizer.
