About Easyeffects
This application was formerly known as PulseEffects, but it was renamed to Easy Effects after it started to use GTK4 and GStreamer usage was replaced by native PipeWire filters. And eventually the whole application was ported from GTK4 to a combination of Qt, QML and KDE/Kirigami frameworks.
