Graphic Equalizer auto changer?
This crossed my mind earlier today when my head was in ponderland. Is there anyway I can set certain songs to automatically choose a equalizer setting?

For instance,

Let's say I'm hosting a party and want to play all the music on my hard drive (which would take about 400 hours) and let's say Kings of Leon is playing, I want to have the equalizer automatically select 'Rock' and if Eminem is the next track I want 'Rap' the Black Eyed Peas might be next so I want 'Pop', but I want it to do it all on its own.

I thought there might be a nifty little program out there that can tap into the ID tags of MP3's.

Just a thought, if not, why doesn't one of the programmers on here get one done? A simple add-on to WMP?

You could probably do that with an AutoHotkey script.

You can use AutoHotkey to automate mouse clicks. So you'd write some scripts to change the equalizer to rock or pop using mouse clicks. Then you'd have the script either read the artist from a playlist or from the Now Playing panel and have some if statements like If Artist = Black Eyed Peas execute the 'Pop' mouse clicks. You could also use genre instead of artist.
