    x based mixer that will adjust trebile and bass?

    Hi;

    I can't find a way to adjust the treble and bass on my speakers.

    I tried "aumix -b -500" with no luck.

    I tried tkmixer.

    Is there a gui sound mixer, not dependent on alsa, that will graphically let the user adjust bass and trebile?

    Thanks in advance

    Steve

    I did a Google search on linux mixer audio bass and got some interesting results. Does that help?

    No.

    Is this the polite version of the rotfm?

    FYI I went to tucows before I posted here.

    I went through a list of mixers for linux. None of the ones I tried would install to knoppix, had bass controls, or worked.

    On my connection each trial was time consuming. I posted here hoping to get a shortcut around via a recommendation from someone else's experience so that I wouldn't have to spend an entire afternoon downloading, installing, and trying various mixers just so I could turn my bass down on my speakers.

    Do you have any information to contribute?

    I'm sorry if it seemed that way. I never intend my responses to seem condescending; we're here to help each other. My only thought was that a different perspective might be useful -- in fact, the question itself has put me on a path that I might not have traveled otherwise, so thanks.

    If I encounter any useful info in my quest, I'll certainly share. I'm about to HD-install for an experimental platform. I need to learn more about Linux -- I'm tired of Windows, and we need to have a full user infrastructure in place before Longhorn rolls out...

    My apologies for assuming wrong.

    As you know, in the GNU/Linux internet community a lot of people do get slammed when they ask questions. It has happened to me and I guess it has made me overly sensitive to it.

    To me, google is such a well know tool and such an obvious first step that asking someone if they tried searching on google can be easily mistaken for sarcasm.

    I will think twice next time before I make that assumption.

    My apologies

    Steve

    ...and one of those path-induced thoughts was, "what about XMMS? That has a graphical-equalizer built-in, and it's Open Source." It makes me wish I was a programmer; maybe that part of the code could be reworked to stand alone and the audio data could be piped through it...
