I would like a song/playlist option that allows to change the EQ settings or choose the preset for this song.

Why ?
I have alot of bootlegs and live albumson vinyl.
Some of them sound really crappy unless you cut the bass and pump the highs.
I always end up switching EQ presets, which isn't to easy/fast.

I agree. Per-song or per-playlist EQs is something I've asked for in the past. The empeg folks seemed reasonably receptive to the idea, but somehow nothing has come from it.

My idea was that, out of the 16 presets, I'd have specific ones that were modified versions of my main "basic" preset. My presets would be like this:

1: BasicEQ
2: CompletelyFlat
3: LessBass
4: LessTreble
5: RemoveAnnoyingLoMidRubmleFromThisOneParticularAlbum
6: NotchFilterOneSpecificHighFrequencyThatsOverEmphasizedOnACertainAlbum

(etc...)

All of the presets would be based on "1: Basic EQ", but have some specific changes to them.

Then there would be a default EQ that all the songs use. I'd set it to be preset number 2, all songs. Then I'd set all the songs from my remastered copy of The Fixx's "Shuttered Room" to use preset number 6. I'd set a certain range of Steve Morse albums to number 5. Madonna's Ray of Light would get preset number 3, etc.

Wow, I guess 1.1 allows longer EQ preset names. Sweet!
