Where are the DSP effects?

[Leafeater]

Hi,

After installing dbPowerAmp, I wanted to try some DSP effects, so I downloaded some and installed them. After the installation, I now still have a DSPEffects directory with the "Volume Normalize.dll" and a new directory DSP with a "Headphone.dll" (yes, the headphone dsp effect).

I still cannot see any DSP effects in the Plug-Ins window :confused: . Hey, there is a list of visual outputs too! Where can I download them and how can I develop some of my own?

Then I read in the newsgroups, that DSP effects are usable only in the music converter (why do I have a window in the player then???). So I tried, but I cannot even get an empty list of DSPs to show up in the converter :confused:.

The installation of the DSP is REALLY cool! It stops dbPowerAmp and restarts it after the installation, exactly where it stopped!!! Cool :D !!!

Nevertheless, how can I activate the DSP effects in the converter and the player?

Thanks for any help.

The DSP effects are available and accessible through the power pack and if you have instaled the power pack you access them through the power pack menu at various points. Unless you have the beta version of the dB audio player (I do not) I don't think that any of the dsp effects apply to the audio player (aside from a track volume adjustment which includes an auto volume normalize function which you access through My Music Collection). Rather, they apply almost exclusively to the Music Converter (and other parts of the power pack apply to programs associated with the Music Converter (such as the CD Writer, Auxilary Input, and so forth).
The Plug-Ins window in the Options menu of the Audio Player is an example of open architecture. Currently, aside from the above, therre are no plug ins available and (since the power pack options are not counted as plug ins) there are no plug ins. There are also a wide array of skins available for the audio player if you are interested in that area. If you are interested perhaps you might want to help develop some plug ins (check the Developer forum or ask Spoon about this if you have questions).
best wishes,

Make sure you are installing the DSPs to the same location that you installed dAP.

For dMC the DSP effects are in the Power Pack.
