That's ok.  Did you not get an error?  I had a quick look: you may
have to edit scm/midi.scm and change the instrument-equalizer-alist
definition to public:

(define-public instrument-equalizer-alist '())

what version of LilyPond are you using?

You must use a volume setting on your notes; otherwise the equalizer
is not used; eg, add -\f to every first note on a staff.
