Is it a good idea to boost fundamental (lowest) frequencie of the bass. So you can hear it more clearly. Or it is better to boost harmonic (higher related) frequencies. Or maybe cutting of some frequencies between harmonic ones? That is the question that bothers me most.

hello, i have a noob question about eq.. perhaps maybe noob?..lol.. anyways, when eqing guitar where are some good spots to cut/boost hz wise? if that makes any sense, please if anyone can help? thank you :)

I hope it's okay to post a mixing question here. I have been around RO a while so I'm not trolling.

So I'm mixing(my own stuff).

The beginning of the song is just voice and a guitar, I leave in a fair bit of low end, so it's not all thin and pasty. I want to hear the fullness of both as they stand on their own.

Hey everyone!

I'm not sure if audibility is a word...but it is sort of what I'm looking for. We've just purchased two new Sennheiser 135G2 wireless handhelds for our praise and worship team. In addition, the rest of the team are using a sort of SM58 type microphone.

Dear Friends,

I've recently purchased a Royer SF12 for choral recording and am now interested in getting a good quality PEQ plugin for tweaking of said SF12 output. Not being flush with cash, I'd like to hear about 'best bang for buck' options, while attempting to remain relatively high-end quality wise, if that is at all possible.

Hi,

I would like to hear your opinion... What are the best comp & eq plugins? If the money is not the object. I am using Cubase sx3.

Regards,

Hey guys, I was wondering if anyone could point me in the right direction as far as the standards used in mastering for radio as far as eq and compression goes? I ask because I have some crappy songs lying around that I would like to experiment mastering techiniques on. Any and all responses woud be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Hello there.
I've just joined the forum because I am at my wit's end.

I have recently purchased a Rane Parametric EQ (PEQ55) for use in my live rig.
I am a guitarist, so here's the rig (pretty simple).

Guitar (EMG actives) --> Morely Tripler, with boost (for raising signal level) --> Rane PEQ --> Mesa Mark II.

How many of you sound engineers out there in the live sound arena use third-octave RTA (real-time analysis) for EQing a venue? This is something I do quite a lot, but I have seen very little discussion of it in these forums.

So, I am learning how to use EQ...and I can't seem to get it right. Here is what I think I am supposed to do:

I first EQ each instrument in my mix.
I then EQ the vocals.
After I mix them...I EQ again to give each part it's "pocket" in the mix.
