10 band PEQ now on Mini with release of v2.6.620641

Interesting, I have mini and haven’t got that update.

 

[slartibartfast]

Wiim stated that left and right peq will be release on 6/22 and ASRC with same date. We’re in for a treat on another important feature.

Where is it then

It’s not instant. Let say it get release give it few days before it land in your device. They go on batch set.

Could it be used for vinyl ripping?

I am considering building a system based on the Wiim Amp (or Wiim Amp Pro if I spend long enough thinking about it). I have not owned a turntable for years, but looking to add one. I still have much of my original pre-CD vinyl collection tucked away, and would like to not only play but also to try ripping some of this. I could buy a USB equipped turntable, but would I be right in thinking that my choice wouldn't be so restricted if the Amp supported USB out?

I could play from the turntable, through the Amp, connect to my laptop and record with Audacity, no?

From the ultra Q&A

If I use line(phono) input from the turntable, can we record the song to a digital music file, i.e., as a flac, wav, etc. file format, on USB storage?

It's possible.

I actually think that question / answer is a bit ambiguous.
It reads like a thumb drive can be plugged into the usb port and music recorded to it.
I suspect it's more like what you were asking, where the wiim sends usb audio out and something downstream could record it.

Feature request: Auto volume level when RC was performed to avoid clipping.

Yeah, didn’t like that answer. I’m sure the person who asked it now has the wrong impression

It's running late

Seriously, given the spate of rollouts last week, I'd be surprised to see it this week. More likely by the end of next week imho

Possibly but they only announced the release date a week earlier. I didn't get the Room Correction update until 4 or 5 days after the release date though (even though I can't use it )

Is there a way to set negative preamp value in PEQ? I have ro the Focal Ckear and it’s known to clip unless I set negative preamp.

See this post where you can determine what level to set the WiiM’s volume limit setting to guard against clipping

PEQ talk

Does anyone here use PowerAmp Equilizer Pro app? Their PEQ settings at minimum is 10 bands(freq). Do we need that many for this device; i dont know. EQ is a nice feature/function but diddling with it all the time i think one loses their perspective with the music.

Thanks! Do you know whether this (and PEQ in general) works through SPDIF or line out only?

It works on both analog and digital outputs but not Bluetooth.

I hope WiiM will add in preamp, so I can save it as part of each headphones profile.

Anyone got this yet? A week after the supposed release still no sign of it.

No. See comment #219. As said many times before, the dates in the roadmaps are targets and are often optimistic.

Yes but they announced the revised release date for per channel PEQ only a week before. It wasn't months in advance. If you announce something will be available in a week you should be pretty sure about it. They are the complete opposite of Scotty from Star Trek

Looking at the roadmap now they have sneakily changed the date to 30th June. Let's see.
