How to get Fletcher-Munson/loudness curves for volume control












0















Right now my volume controls do what they were designed to do. However, since the human ears become less sensitive to low frequencies at lower volumes compared to mid/high frequencies, music sounds duller when I turn the volume down.



This could be solved by using pulseeffects's equalizer, however if I did, I would run into the opposite problem when I turned the volume back up!



This phenomenon which some people call 'loudness' does have its own plugin in pulseeffects, however I'd like to see if I could incorporate this loudness into the volume control settings as well. What's the simplest way for me to achieve this?
