I very strongly urge you to not do this. gtk 4.12.5 from Debian Trixie will soon depend on renamed glib packages (and many others) as part of the 64-bit time_t transition. It will soon be impossible to install Trixie's gtk4 without upgrading basically your entire system to Trixie. Debian Stable is not designed to allow selectively choosing packages from Unstable or Testing nor is it to run the latest version of all apps. The one exception is Backports but those are technically not Trixie packages even though they may look like them. GTK4 is currently not a good fit for Backports. The other way to run newer apps on Debian Stable is to use Flatpak or Snap packages. It looks like easyeffects is available on Flathub but not in the Snap Store currently.
