I have compiled here some mods (like Beats Audio, Clear Audio+, Acid Audio, Awesome Beats...) and kernels that include hardware level audio improvements What does this means? They are audio systems specially for (DACs (Digital-to-Analog Converter) Wolfson[/URL]. They are the following:
-Vodoo Sound/Scoobydoo Sound:It's the audio system developed by supercurio for the Wolfson DAC WM8994( Included in the well known Galaxy S and Nexus S) and ported non oficially by gokhanmoral to our DAC Wolfson WM1811 present in the Exynos versionsof the SIII (GT-I9300 and GTI9305) and on Galaxy Note II. But recently has been improved by my friend googy_anas, who included Wolfson Sound features (Private mode, Mic Gain control and Headphone amp balance), and made it fully compatible with CM/AOSP roms.
-Boeffla Sound: It's the audio system developed by AndiP from supercurio's work (Voodoo Sound) and from Gokhanmoral's port. Stands for including new features in the app:
-5-band parametric equalizer (Hardware EQ)
-Microphone gain controller
-Private Mode: Deactivates the speaker when headset is plugged.
