How it works

Performs on-device speech-to-text and streams lines into a small overlay. You control how aggressively lines appear or linger.

Requirements

  • Windows 10/11
  • Standard audio device; runs fully offline after install

Quick start (≈3 minutes)

  1. Install Equalizer APO when prompted (or via the in-app helper), then enable your playback device in the Configurator and reboot.
  2. Open NodeEQ. Click on the graph to add a band, then drag left/right (frequency) and up/down (gain).
  3. Hover a node and use the mouse wheel to change Q (width).
  4. Press A or click Apply Changes to push the EQ system-wide.
  5. Load a preset, tweak, then Save preset… to keep it.

Controls & gestures

  • Add a band: click anywhere on the spectrum
  • Move a band: drag (frequency & gain)
  • Change width (Q): mouse wheel over a node
  • Delete band: click the small × near a node / right-click → Delete / Delete
  • Apply to system: A (or Apply Changes)
  • Analyzer On: live spectrum visualization
  • Freeze: hold the last strong frame during silence to inspect it
  • Pin window: keeps NodeEQ always on top

Suggested workflow

  1. Start with a matching Headphone Preset (or a neutral curve).
  2. Play familiar music/speech and enable the Analyzer.
  3. Cut issues first (boom / harshness) with wider Q, then add small boosts.
  4. Keep boosts under ~6 dB where possible for headroom.
  5. Press A to A/B system-wide and confirm the improvement.

Presets

  • Built-in Headphone Presets are installed on first run. Load one, then tweak nodes.
  • Save preset… writes a portable text file (Equalizer APO compatible).
  • Up to 5 bands are supported. Prefer multiple gentle bands over one extreme boost.

Tools & setup helpers

  • Open EAPO Configurator — enable your playback device & restart
  • Open config.txt & active-preset.txt — for advanced edits or backup
  • Quick Start / Help — in-app walkthrough

Tuning tips

  • Use the live spectrum to spot broad problems (boomy bass, harsh highs) and place gentle cuts first.
  • Wider Q sounds more natural; narrow Q for surgical fixes.
  • Target “listening comfort” first, then micro-adjust for detail.

Troubleshooting

  • No effect? Ensure Equalizer APO is installed and your playback device is enabled in Configurator; reboot once after enabling.
  • Analyzer shows but EQ doesn’t apply? Use the helper to re-include APO config or re-select the device.
  • High latency? Lower the device buffer or disable other processors in your chain.
System-wide: NodeEQ adjusts your system output, so it works with any headphones — wired, Bluetooth, or USB DAC.

FAQ

Lecture vs Note mode?

Lecture shows continuous captions; Note auto-clears old lines for quick prompts.
