"Use EasyEffects flatpack or install required programs yourself".
Yeah, well, I already have lsp-plugins installed, but many plugins are greyed out in easyeffects and can't be enabled because they are not installed. I tried enabling/disabling some use flags on easyeffects and lsp-plugins and even rebooted to make sure my changes are active, but it didn't make a difference. Even -X didn't make LSP's GUIs go away.

I'm using pipewire with jack and alsa interfaces on ~amd64 nomultilib, and I really want to run some stuff through compressor, because people on the internet really suck at matching volume on audio from different sources.

Any tips at all? Anyone got it running or tried and failed?

One thing that caught my eye was a warning from some other plugin which mentioned a bunch of things with _x32_ in their names which brings 32 bit ABI to my mind; obviously this is something I don't have installed, but it shouldn't be required either.
Otherwise it was in line with the above and lv2_wrapper; not very helpful, unfortunately.

Bonus point, I can start LSP's compressor (or at least some of its variants) outside of easyeffects and manually route audio through it. Unfortunately, doing so takes additional manual work, and then EE still keeps "correcting" my jack canvas.

I don't have any personal experience with it. I didn't like all those plugins cluttering up my app menus and now use JamesDSP for Linux, mainly as an equalizer and sound booster.
https://github.com/wwmm/easyeffects/issues/1685
After reading that, I can only suggest to check to see where your plugins are installed. Maybe easyeffects is looking for them in the wrong directory, i.e. /usr/lib/lv2 vs /usr/lib64/lv2.
Maybe try one of the environment variable workarounds, re-login and see if it has any effect.

export LADSPA_PATH=/usr/lib64/ladspa

export LV2_PATH=/usr/lib64/lv2

Good catch, those variables point to /usr/lib/<api> and the libs are installed under /usr/lib64/<api>
Quick ln -s, restart ee, things looking good. Thanks!

Alright, so one last update:
I set up a very aggressive compressor in boost mode, with 5ms attack and release, 30 dB boost and ratio of 4, which gives almost constant output volume regardless of application's volume.
Like, it's hard to tell the difference between 10% volume and 100% volume, though sound does get distorted at transitions. Quite impressive.
Adding 3ms lookahead got rid of clicking artifacts from volume spikes. Perhaps it would be even better if I extended it to match attack window. Perhaps it would get rid of distortions mentioned above. I'll try fine tuning it later.

Anyway, it does a really good job rectifying internet garbage, and I can just disable it when watching movies with well done sound track.
I may or may not get another, less aggressive profile for movies with bad sound tracks... I mean, it would be nice to have for completeness, but I'm not sure I even want to watch those movies in the first place.
I wonder if I can somehow hotkey it :lol: but that's a different case for another day.
