I want to record some music in the band I am in, but I want to get as good of a sound out of the recorder as I can. The band consists of 1 singer, 2 guitarists, 1 bassist, and 1 drummer. The recording device I use is an Alesis Multimix 16 USB 2.0. The mixer as a 3 band EQ and does high pass filtering at 75 hz.

hey guys,
i was looking to add a stereo eq to my fp10 and put it in the send/return for channel 1 and 2. i could only find a single channel parametric eq but lots or graphic eqs. so i was wonndering would a graphic eq be ok, such as a dbx 215. i know its used mostly between the speakers and power amp, would the levels be ok to use in the send and return in the fp10

bit new to live mixing so any help here would be appreciated...i have a 2 channel 31 band EQ and all of my front of house is in mono. Can I use channel A on my EQ for my front of house and use channel B for my foldback (monitors)? Will it work? Is it stupid? Is there any reason why I have to use both channels for front of house?

I've been experimenting for several years now, and without making this a thread of "boost this and cut that", "use this not that". I was wondering if there is a useful reference (book, CD, etc) for drum eq/compression/gate/etc available (in addition to my ears and creative experimentation).

ill be buying a firestudio project soon, and i was planning on getting a dual eq and dual compressor for the inserts on ch 1 and 2 on the firestudio. i was thinking of a preamp aswell just to give some different sounds from the preamps in the firestudio, so i looked up some Joemeek stuff. they have a dual compressor and dual eq all in one, i think it could be a preamp too.

I've perused thoroughly all the Free Plug-in threads, but to you who can identify a decent EQ: are there any free ones you'd actually recommend?

Hi all,

I am sure that compression should be applied before EQ but I am not completely positive about it. This is my set up:

Microphone to MH3 chanel, ACP-88 to insert and then series to an EQ station, the EQ staion is after the compressor.

Can anyone help please?

Thanks.

powering and tuning my Yamaha ns10's... looking for good price to "clarity" ratio... thanks in advance!

I'm doing some essays in EQ with a recording I made the past year: violin and bass drum (the drum doing a percussive accompaniment) playing dance music. It is folk music.
I have done yesterday some search in this Forum about EQ and I found the following:
