[pulseaudio-discuss] Dynamic range compression

I have this in my /etc/pulse/default.pa

load-module module-ladspa-sink sink_name=ladspa_compressor
master=alsa_output.pci-0000_01_00.1.hdmi-stereo plugin=dyson_compress_1403
label=dysonCompress control=0,1,0.5,0.99
load-module module-ladspa-sink sink_name=ladspa_limiter master=ladspa_sink
plugin=fast_lookahead_limiter_1913 label=fastLookaheadLimiter
control=10,0,0.8
set-default-sink ladspa_limiter

You need to replace "master=alsa_output.pci-0000_01_00.1.hdmi-stereo" with
your preferred hardware sink.

Drawback: If this hardware sink is going away, e.g. because you change
profiles, unplug the monitor that provides this profile, switching the
soundcards' profile to off, etc.pp., then pulseaudio just hard crashes
right away and refuses to restart until this profile comes back again or
you comment out these lines in default.pa.

Regards,
Daniel
