People have forgotten what "audio quality" is

I am actually familiar with all the effects in there.

Pulseeffects is what easyeffects was, at actually compiles supposedly (link), albeit EQ doesn't work, it seems.

I just looked into EasyEffects and it is missing a "ECM" package in the FreeBSD ports tree as a dependency. Any idea what "ECM" is?

Everyone now is just listening to compressed MP3s on low-wattage bluetooth speakers with SBC compression. No-one builds their own Hi-Fi systems with good speakers and amps anymore. Almost no-one listens to lossless or analog anymore. Even though the sound quality is technically worse, I go for analog almost always because of this awful loudness war that is ruining our music. I would not call myself an audiophile because that implies I have magic rocks and $1000 dollar extsnsion cords, instead I would just call myself a person who can't take the sloppy shit that is passed off as "listening" anymore.

If it's any comfort, I have always listened to music on a legendary set of massive floor speakers with corresponding amps and lossless audio. It's fantastic. You might to change that "no-one" to "one".

Electronic Counter Measures, maybe?

the ai says is something like Extra CMakeFiles but can't verify because shithub is down again
probably this

Thank you, yes. It's in ports.

But it is then missing a part of Qt6, qtpaths. We only have that for Qt5:

CMake Error at /usr/local/share/ECM/modules/ECMQueryQt.cmake:84 (message):
  No Qt6 qtpaths executable found.  Can't check QT_INSTALL_PREFIX as required
