Soft for hearing test for EQ adaptation for headphones

[Draghmar]

I remember Samsung had soft on their phones that could do a simple hearing test in order to do some EQ to be better suited for individuals ears. There's also app SoundID that has similar feature. I wonder - is there a Windows app that can do the same? I'd like to tune my ears with my headphones to get best performance...or at least check what the difference it will make. I imagine that this app would simply work as EQ or output some EQ data to use in other soft (like Equalizer APO for example).

you mean this app ?

It works on your lower hearing limit which is not the same as your hearing at normal and loud listening levels so a poor way to base EQ on.
Then there is seal, your personal hearing and the headphone. That's more than one variable.
If you want to do this I would suggest to use the Griesinger method instead.

Yeah, that's the one. I used it as a example because that's the only one that I know of, that does that this way. I remember there are some headphones with tuning like that but I don't remember their name.

Anyway, I've seen this Griesinger method when I was trying to find anything related to my topic. I even downloaded the app for later to check it out. But I thought that there may be some other apps. Especially since this one needs speakers as well, as far I understand, which, if it's true, makes it useless for me - I don't have speakers.

SoudID darbojas arī windows.

Yeah, I know about this soft and that it's also on Windows but there are two issues with it:
1. It requires testing through mobile app, which is annoying.
2. It works as a virtual soundcard and I'd rather like to get EQ result instead.
I had SoundID long time ago, when they were offering free beta testing.

The SoundID office is near my home, sometimes I want to go there and talk
