Fix: Easy Effects "Deep Noise Remover Not Available" on Ubuntu

The Problem

When using Easy Effects installed via apt on Ubuntu, the Deep Noise Remover effect shows:

Deep Noise Remover Not Available The software required for the Deep Noise Remover effect, "DeepFilterNet", is not installed.

Why This Happens

The Ubuntu apt package for Easy Effects (version 7.2.5 as of writing) does not bundle DeepFilterNet. Installing DeepFilterNet separately via pip/pipx is complex due to PyTorch dependencies and version compatibility issues.

The Solution

Install Easy Effects via Flatpak instead. The Flatpak version (8.0.6+) includes DeepFilterNet bundled.

# Install the Flatpak version
flatpak install -y flathub com.github.wwmm.easyeffects

# Launch it
flatpak run com.github.wwmm.easyeffects

Notes

  • You can keep both versions installed (apt and Flatpak)
  • The Flatpak version will appear separately in your application launcher
  • After launching, the Deep Noise Remover effect should be available under Effects

Environment

  • Ubuntu 25.04
  • Easy Effects apt version: 7.2.5
  • Easy Effects Flatpak version: 8.0.6
  • Audio system: PipeWire
