First Lemmy post for me!
I was going to post on /Linuxquestions but I thought I would try here first.
I have an imac2011 which I ran Ubuntu 23.04, Kubuntu and Ubuntu Cinnamon. I discovered Easy Effects audio app which allowed me to download profiles to enhance the audio from the system.
I recently decided to try OpenCoreLegacyParcher and installed a newer version of macos, which is currently running on my system and the audio quaility is just breath taking compared to Linux.
Is there anyway I can get closer to audio from macos on Linux? I’m considering going back to Linux soon but I think i’ll miss how good the audio is :(

You should take a look into JamesDSP https://github.com/Audio4Linux/JDSP4Linux
There is a Flatpak! Awesome and lol of course it works way better than on damn Android, where you need weird hacks that dont really work
For android I’ve stuck to the OG Viper4Android since JamesDSP kinda acts funky.
Thank you!
No problem
By default audio is often configured to run properly on the crappiest sound card and CPU. Since you used easyeffect I assume you use pipeWire. Here some of my config : In pipewire.conf :
default.clock.rate = 96000 default.clock.allowed-rates = [ 44100 48000 96000 192000 ]In pipewire-pulse.conf
stream.properties = { resample.quality = 10 }If you’re using default.clock.allowed-rates you shouldn’t set default.clock.rate or it won’t switch based on the source frequency.
I learned that PopOs runs best on iMac with least amount of problems, I don’t know if that will fix audio but you can always download PopOs on a flash drive and boot to it to try out without installing it on drive.
Thats a good idea, I suppose I could use a live Linux boot to play around with the EQ settings
