I want to install Ubuntu 16.04.3 (desktop amd64) to my PC and I would need a good compressor & equalizer program, so I decided with PulseEffects, but they wrote in their GitHub wiki this:

Debian 9 / Ubuntu 17.04 and older

Older Debian based distributions ship with older versions of gstreamer. PulseEffects require Gstreamer 1.12 or above to work. Using a newer version of your distribution is the recommended solution.

(source)

Can I somehow install the Gstreamer 1.12 and PulseEffects? If yes, how? Or should I install the 17.10?

Thanks!

Try using these instructions.

I haven't tried it myself.

These are the suggested commands:

wget https://launchpad.net/~yunnxx/+archive/ubuntu/gnome3/+files/pulseeffects_1.313entornosgnulinuxenial-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i pulseeffects_1.313entornosgnulinuxenial-1ubuntu1_amd64.deb 

When you run the second command, you may see some dependency errors, which should be resolved by running

sudo apt install -f

After installation, you can run the program from the terminal using

pulseeffects
