Installing PulseEffects on Ubuntu 18 LTS

  • 772

I'm using Ubuntu 18.04 for 3 weeks right now, and I don't have much knowledge installing apps and adding ppa sources.
I was searching for some equalizer software and it ends up by finding PulseEffects, but I don't find anywhere how to install it on Ubuntu 18.04.

Could anybody help me and show me step by step the installation procedure?

  1. Installing PulseEffects

    Ubuntu 18.04

    These describtion is taken from how-to install PulseEffects on Ubuntu 18.04.

    Open a terminal and type

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:mikhailnov/pulseeffects -y
sudo apt update
sudo apt install pulseeffects --install-recommends

    But be aware, these is 3rd party software.

    Ubuntu 19.10 and Newer

    Maintained inside Debian main repository by hosiet.

    To install pulseeffects on latest Ubuntu systems, run:

    sudo apt install pulseeffects

  2. From OMG Ubuntu:

    PulseEffects is a Powerful GTK Audio Effects & Equalizer App for Linux

    It is possible to install PulseEffects on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS and above, but there are a few caveats involved.

    The latest version of PulseEffects is not (that I can find) yet packaged for Ubuntu. If you want to run the very latest build you will need to download the source code from Github and manually compile it.

    An older version of the app is available via an engorged third-party GNOME 3 PPA. As this personal package archive is chock-full of other apps, themes and libraries I recommend only downloading the PulseEffects package itself directly, rather than adding the PPA to your software sources.

    Update: The app is now available as a Flatpak app via Flathub.

    Note: visit the OMG Ubuntu article in the topmost link for more details, including direct downloads.

    sudo add-apt-repository ppa:yunnxx/gnome3
sudo apt update
sudo apt install pulseeffects
