I'm sorry, but too busy for protracted searches this morning. If the OP
(Tony?) still hasn't found something then please to jog my memory in a few
days to a week because I'm *sure* I remember a preprocessor package that
sits ahead of the sound driver and allows graphic equalisation on any
waveforms (ie not midi) sent out via DMA. ICBW, but I've got this niggling
feeling... It was a beautiful package too and I'm sure it wasn't player
specific, I think it applied to anything that went out via the soundcard.
Unfortunately it may have had a limited list of hardware to which it would
apply but it'd do no harm for me to dig about.

Imaginative googling may well find it for you Anthony (? OP?) have a good
try using terms like 'driver' 'preprocessor' or 'preprocessed' and maybe
'DMA'. Sorry to be so useless but I actually have some work for a change
and I ought to try for at least one happy customer by doing some
preparation..
