|  | 				<ol type="1"> | ||
|  | 					<li>Install VLC.</li> | ||
|  | 				</ol> | ||
|  | 				<p><code>sudo apt install vlc</code></p> | ||
|  | 				<ol start="2" type="1"> | ||
|  | 					<li>Open VLC and drag some music in.</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>While playing some music, open the Tools > Effects and Filters menu. Play around with the presets until you find one that sounds good.</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>Write down the name of the preset you used and then close VLC.</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>In a terminal, <code>cd</code> to where the music you want to play is.</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>In that terminal, execute this command:</li> | ||
|  | 				</ol> | ||
|  | 				<p><code>cvlc --equalizer-preset=INSERT_PRESET_NAME_HERE -I ncurses *.flac</code></p> | ||
|  | 				<p><code>INSERT_PRESET_NAME_HERE</code> should be in all lowercase. For example, the “Headphones” preset (which is what I use) would be <code>--equalizer-preset=headphones</code>.</p> | ||
|  | 				<p>The full list of valid possibilities is: | ||
|  | 				<ul> | ||
|  | 					<li>flat</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>classical</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>club</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>dance</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>fullbass</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>fullbasstreble</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>fulltreble</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>headphones</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>largehall</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>live</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>party</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>pop</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>reggae</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>rock</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>ska</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>soft</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>softrock</li> | ||
|  | 					<li>techno</li> | ||
|  | 				</ul> | ||
|  | 				<p>If your files are MP3 or some other format, replace the <code>flac</code> in <code>*.flac</code> with the actual file type.</p> | ||
|  | 				<ol start="7" type="1"> | ||
|  | 					<li>Press the “h” key to open the help menu, which will show you the player controls.</li> | ||
|  | 				</ol> | ||
