Free and Powerful Equalizer for Windows 10

Windows 10 does not come with an equalizer. That can be annoying when you have headphones that are too heavy on the bass, like the Sony WH-1000XM3. Enter the free Equalizer APO with Peace, its UI.

What You Get

Peter’s Equalizer API Configuration Extension (Peace) is pretty easy to use while offering powerful features:

  • Slider changes have an immediate effect
  • Settings can be applied to invididual devices only
  • Great flexibility
  • Saved configurations
  • Easy backup and restore of configurations
  • Can be started at logon so that configured settings are always applied

The UI looks like this (showing my adjustments for the Sony WH-1000XM3):

Installation

Installation is straightforward. Just make sure to install in the following order

  1. Engine: Equalizer APO
  2. UI: Peace Equalizer

Enjoy!

The Lenovo Yoga 900 packs some amazing hardware in an ultraportable 1.29 kg 13" chassis: high-resolution 3200x1800 screen, Intel Core i7-6500U CPU, 16 GB RAM. The only downsides I found so far: glossy display, maximum SSD size is 512 GB, OS is Windows Home, not Pro. There is not much we can do about the former, but we can change latter two pretty easily. This article explains how to upgrade the SSD and install a clean Windows 10 Pro without any Lenovo bloatware.

What's Wrong with Group Policy

What's Wrong with Group Policy
Over the years I have worked with Group Policy in many different ways. My experience ranges from helping an enterprise client establish a brand new set of policies for physical PCs and VDI machines to authoring ADM/ADMX/ADML files. Last year I presented and wrote a very detailed analysis of the impact of Group Policy on user logon performance (blog posts). Along the way I learned a lot about the strengths but also about the weaknesses of Group Policy. This article is an account of the latter.

Scripted WordPress to Hugo Migration

Scripted WordPress to Hugo Migration
After having published in WordPress for almost 20 years, it was time for a change. This site is now rendered by Hugo, a static website generator built for Markdown content hosted in a Git repository. The migration from WordPress (HTML) to Hugo (Markdown) was far from trivial. Since I couldn’t find any tool for the job, I developed my own set of migration scripts that fully automate the migration process. You can find them on GitHub along with extensive documentation.
