autoeq-batch-generator

What is this
The AutoEq project:
https://github.com/jaakkopasanen/AutoEq
In normally you need to type in the AutoEq launch command and argument in order to use it.
When you want to generate five eq settings for same headphone, things not that handy.
The powershell script will read the predefined config file, and do something automated.

• Easy translate to your local language
• Change code page to prevent wrong encoding
• Change working directory into AutoEq download folder
• Check virtualenv environment
• Install virtualenv and other dependencies if they are not exist
• Active virtualenv
• Custom output folder
• Name output folder by different headphone or curve
• Custom max_gain, treble_max_gain value
• Pause after all command executed
• Multiple headphone to multiple target curve at once
• Extreme all to all mode

Planned feature:

• Add version to each of config file, for sync translate better.

How to use
Before execute, you need to download my dependencies library:
https://github.com/mhtvsSFrpHdE/cmd-script-the-powershell-way
https://github.com/mhtvsSFrpHdE/simple-catch
https://github.com/mhtvsSFrpHdE/folder-iterator

Paste the cstpw.ps1 and other "ps1" files to the same folder as autoeq-batch-generator.ps1.
If you use release branch(recommend), they should already in there.

Use your text editor to open abg-user-config.ps1 but do not run it.
At the top of the file, you will see:

# Preset argument
# Set to true if you want to use for multiple headphones mode.
# In this mode, the following value will ignored.
$multiHeadphoneMode = $false

# Both full path and relative path will work
# The reason to use full path at here is we often copy path from Everything search software
# This headphone model is just for demo purpose.
$inputFolder_default = "C:\AutoEq-master\innerfidelity\data\onear\Audio Technica ATH-M50x"
...

The importance of each option is decreasing from top to bottom.
After fill all the in-script config,
open targetCurve.json, in this file you will see:

...
    {
        "CompensationFile":  "C:\\AutoEq-master\\compensation\\loudspeaker_in-room_flat_2013.csv",
		"HeadphoneType":  "None",
        "ResultDisplayName":  "harman_ls_2013",
        "Behavior": "Standardization"
    },
    {
        "CompensationFile":  "C:\\AutoEq-master\\compensation\\harman_over-ear_2018.csv",
		"HeadphoneType":  "OnEar",
        "ResultDisplayName":  "harman_oe_2018",
        "Behavior": "Standardization"

    },
...

It's default content is just for demo purpose,
the data stored as "object in array",
so carefully edit the content or add more repeat.
The "Behavior" have two option, Standardization and Mimesis.
You use Standardization for headphone data to compensation files,
but use Mimesis for headphone data to another headphone data.

If you want to use multi headphone mode,
turn this to true,

# Preset argument
# Set to true if you want to use for multiple headphones by launch once
$multiHeadphoneMode = $false

then go to multiHeadphone.json for the arguments.

Once all argument were defined,
run the autoeq-batch-generator.ps1, your batch should start working.
Use this for overwrite exist(delete first) result, by default is skip exist result.
autoeq-batch-generator.ps1 -Overwrite
Use this for generate script but do not run immediately, by default is run it.
autoeq-batch-generator.ps1 -DisableAutoRun
They can use at same time, for example
autoeq-batch-generator.ps1 -Overwrite -DisableAutoRun
