There is one EQ product that seems ok, but > for me it was unstable and kept crashing my projects. There are two different aspects to this. 1. Things that crash are clearly no acceptable. Yet there is a lot of stuff in the linuxaudio world that do crash or become unstable in some way or another. It's usually due to a programmer being inexperienced in real-time programming, or just copying some equation from a textbook or website without really understanding it. 2. Then there is the question of what it meant by 'EQ'. For classical music recording, if EQ is used at all it will be minimal, at most a few dB and in wide and smooth bands. The aim is always to make things sound natural, not to create an effect. The same is basically true for popular music, even if EQ settings will be more pronounced and agressive. What you seem to expect from EQ (reading your last post about Healing Fountain) is quite different. Most EQs are not designed to completely remove a frequency band or have very steep cutoff slopes, for the simple reason that in 'traditional' audio (recording and mixing real physical instruments) that is quite useless and would sound very bad. So it could well be that you don't find what you need in Linux audio, but that has little to do with the quality of what is available.
