Some notes - epc

Thanks for the comment.
I'm sure that many people like it, and I have no doubt that I'm part of a minority. But in many cases listeners do not know better.

This is just one of the problems:

I think that Bob Ludwig mentioned it in an interview. Bob Katz and Bob Clearmountain and many other mixing and mastering engineers have strong opinions about the state of modern recording, but I'm digressing...

Eventually I'll create a few eq. presets, but here are 2 ideas:
Make the equalizer window resizable
Allow users to automagically associate some presets with certain songs, albums, applications, etc. This could be part of the preferences.

For example, if I'm playing a First Person Shooter, I would like Hear to automatically launch using a FPS preset. If I insert a DVD, Hear could automatically select my Cinema Paradiso preset, if I insert Dark Side of the Moon, Hear could select my Floyd preset, and so on.

iTunes already has that capability when it comes to associating different Eq. settings with specific songs. Hear could take this idea much further.

BTW, I do like Hear as an effect and it can be fun when playing a game, watching a movie, etc, In my case I just don't like it when listening to music.
