Ok so I'm posting this both because I feel I have found a way to get a very nice, much fuller and more even sound out of the Beats ear buds, but also posting it because I am curious to see if anyone else would have the same opinion. With these settings, music sounds GREAT, and I have tried several different types of music, from classical and ambient to industrial rock and underground hip hop. This seems to be a good (but not perfect) universal setting.
I am attaching the DSP Manager apk, you'll need to install this. Also, I leave Beats Audio ENABLED. So once DSP installed, go into "headset", and set the options as shown in the screenshot also attached below. Note, the first option, Dynamic Range Compression, which is cut off in the screen shot, is UNCHECKED. Try this out and let me know what you guys think!
Sounds amazing dude thanks

Have you tried anything with the phone speaker option?
I actually think it sounds better with beats off with these settings lol
Do you have to have temp root to install an apk? (n00b here)

Beats works for me in Pandora.... and also works with other headphones. These settings SHOULD sound good even without Beats, and the DSP Manager EQ settings are universal.

You don't mix to EQ's together people. And Beats EQ does NOT work in any app other than the HTC app. You are mistaken if you think otherwise. You either use the HTC app w/beats on/off. Or any other app you want with DSP/Equalizer/etc.
I had a question about this app. On my Rezound I scanned the QR code and tried browsing here to download the apk and both ways it still says that the apk isn't compatible with my device and my device doesn't know how to handle the file type. Any idea why that is and how I can fix it? I have Unknown Sources checked and USB debugging on (if that would matter here). Thanks for the reply
Yeah, I think this sounds better than beats. Good job.
yeah this is better than the beats and do you know if this dsp will help with the phone speaker ?
I hope you don't mind me asking. Where did this program come from? Does it have anything to do with the "HTC enhancer" option in the stock program?
I'm not sure it necessarily sounds better with dynamic range compression on but it certainly sounds different. I would have to listen longer to decide if I really like it better.
On the plus side, rolling the treble off makes the headphone jack interference a little less obvious.
I do like the effect better than Beats, which I was not into.
I use to use DSP in my incredible, I'm glad to see I can use it on my Rezound. I found it does sound a little better, and I am able to use beats and dsp at the same time. I did get a couple of dsp force closes but nothing major, thanks

I honestly don't know for sure where the dsp manager app came from initially, but it started showing up in most of the custom Inc ROMs a while ago.
I'm glad to see other people are enjoying the settings and I'm not aurally retarded

Sent from my HTC Rezound
can somebody make audio codec or something that is equivalent to the sound of Windows Bass Boost Enhancement? it the settings are 50hz with 18db of boost. I find this to be very pleasing to the ear. I do have a rooted EVO 3D with beats audio and the bass just doesn't compare. the test song i used was Spitfire-Kill the Noise Remix By Porter Robinson(very bass heavy). so to recap could someone either make or link me to an app with controllable bass boost?
P.S. i have beats audio because i am using Leedroid's rom.
Poweramp ftw

Try volume + all I do is use the virtual room enhancement along with beats.

Add the anthrax kernel and you'll hear big difference. Volume+ Is a great addition too.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
thank you everyone! to the guy who said use anthrax, i have no idea which file to download and when i did try to get one, it bootlooped my device so i had to reflash leedraoid which did not make me happy
Sorry about that problem. You first need to make sure you select the shooter or evo 3d (shooter) section. Then you need to determine cdma or gsm. Sprint is cdma. Also aosp version is for cyanogenmod or miui roms. I know it can be a little confusing.
I also want to warn you that some performance tweaks in roms can conflict with that kernel. You'll know if you get random reboots... But the sound improvements are incredible.

And this anthrax kernel is the right 1. However I don't know if it might conflict with scripts within the rom. Just sharing if you wanted to try it still. Make a nand backup before flashing just in case.

No it is named Volume+
Flash a ROM with DSP Manager installed. or push the necessary apk and libs to your existing ROM.
It contains a parametric EQ that allows you to boost the lower frequencies as well as all the others.
Yea, I would ditch the beats, go with dsp or power amp,
Volume+ just didn't do it for me.. I use power amp, im a bass head myself. In power amp, I turn of the limit and the tone part of the app. I use the sliders to get the sound I want...
Just the anthrax kernal alone with the beats drivers should make it sound better rather beats is on or not...
Shot from my sharp shooter in 3d
I would say PowerAmp is your best bet.
The app has a customizable EQ, with gain and pre-amp. It also has a nice little bass and treble knob to adjust it.
PowerAmp manages to let me crank the bass so high that I can barely hear anything else. Try it out?
Like they say before,I use warm and anthrax no need for anything else it sounds beautiful take it from me. I bought 20 dollars headset n man sounds unreal.

I didn't notice a difference either till I was in my sisters car and she commented on how much nicer my phone sounded that hers through aux. I didn't notice a difference in my car because I have subs and in car speaker performance isn't noticeable when you have subs blaring lol. We played a song in her car with my phone (same Google music app, equalizer turned off on both phones) then same song with her phone and mine was much cleaner and the bass hit a bit harder through her standard car speakers. It definitely made a difference. Eventually I put the same beats files on her phone and she loves it. She said before she couldn't turn it up too loud because it distorted her speakers. I believe it has more of an effect the louder you go and the quality of the speaker

But we have almost the same thing in settings - sound - media audio effects.
Or is it still better comparing with these? Or with equaliser in power amp for example?
I never tried it and don't believe it much.
Beats is overrated and just a name. Musicfx, dspmanager, and any other application equalizer does the exact same thing.

It is basically an background equalizer. And is nice for people who don't like messing with an equalizer or if my sister, who doesn't understand how an equalizer works. Its a good alternative and really only makes a difference at clearing the sound at high volumes. That's really its only benefit for an average user. Some market equalizers don't do this.
I also found a site once that deeply explain how the beats "driver" worked or compared and it was interesting. Not mind changing but it didn't explain how it is pretty much an equalizer but with a few built-in features only for beats. I'll look it up and post it.

I have the beats installed from the Rocco ROM i use. I also use win amp pro that has an eq so the sound quality is great.. I am sure with just the eq from the win amp it would sound great just the same.

I have been saying this for years now and no one listens. I use free "Equalizer" app from the Market, everyone loves it. And I have my $9.99 SkullCandy headphones and they are great!
Does anyone that flashed the beats audio know if the beats headphones with inline control work once flashed because i was looking at a set and didn't buy them because when i tried them the controls didnt work but when i plugged them into a phone with beats they worked.
Here's a flashable zip for DSPManager. I've confirmed it working on HTC's player. It works along side beats just fine without conflict for screaming bass! Feel free to report any issues but it should be an error free experience.
Update : originally it was posted that this worked with google music however HTC player is the only confirmed player. Sorry for the confusion. Also for some reason audio effects drop out when using Car app.

It's version 1.0 and was originally developed for cyanogenmod. The app is the same one you've seen in custom roms, but quite frequently the audio libs aren't configured properly and create a conflict so DSPManager doesn't work as intended (sound effect settings don't do anything). This zip contains proper reference to the sound effect libs for correct functionality.

That's exactly what I use it for, only try it with subs...amazingly clean bass. My subs would not even perform at the level they do without this app. I don't listen to cd's anymore because nothing can top the quality of sound I get from using the app with the phone over bluetooth.
I prefer to drag and drop the files. Besides all the files in system, would I need to drag anything else? Tried and it refuses to work with beats. Am I missing something? I'm on OMJ newest 4.04

Which enhancements are you using that you are confident aren't working? Have you enabled bass boost? Are you using headphones or larger speakers? Beats turns on automatically when using headphones or bluetooth, this package doesn't restrict that feature. The package flashes DSP as a system app but it should work fine as a user installed app too and yes you can push the proper files to each specified system folder. All that is required is a reboot for the files to have an effect.
Works great in my latest Rom!

The difference in bass sound even for high end headphones isn't always that recognizable. If the other outputs are working it means they all should be, at least I haven't encountered an issue where only headphone effects don't work. Did you test the equalizer? Put all the settings in random positions and the sound should change radically to confirm the settings for that output are working. I suggest the equalizer for bass if indeed as you say there is absolutely no change when using bass boost.

Before starting with adjustment,
We need to choose correct output.
Which output we want to adjust.
There are three outputs to choose.
Built in speakers, line out (i.e wired headphone), wireless output(i.e Bluetooth headphone).
Hear it with correct output, while adjusting/setting the desired sound processing style.

i read the entire thread on it in the note2 forums (took two days) but i see there was a nooz player that was pulled due to some issue. i am currently looking for it to test over poweramp.
I kept changing the settings in the built in speakers category to hear differences on the phone speakers itself but no difference.. :what:
I also do not see "music effects" under settings > sound. Help?
EDIT: Oh. It only works with noozy (classic) and play music. Not working on stock HTC music player.

I got it working on my HTC one max by uninstalling the "music enhancer" service/app with titanium backup. It force rebooted the phone, and after that, it works as native audio on everything! If you try this, make sure you make a nand backup... Did that about 8hours ago and haven't had any problems yet. Even have v4a audio on phone calls...
Poweramp is the best music player for Android hands down with a full 16-band equalizer
I'm using Viper Audio on mine. I use the stock music player and when it doesn't sound like its working, I open the viper app and it kicks in. Sounds great.
