Reactive EQing?

Post by outdropt » Sun Oct 28, 2012 5:06 pm

Is there such a thing?

Just thought instead of emptying out the 80-200hz section on the bass/sub channel... you could leave it and have an eq that pushes those fq's out of the way when present.

Almost like a sidechained compressor that works on a small fq range.

If you mean an EQ that reduces frequencies based on their amplitude (reduces more as they get louder) then that is called a dynamic EQ. Otherwise you could use a multi-band compressor if you have one which allows you to side chain certain bands.

whatever happened to that EQ someone was gonna build. you feed it one signal, and it reduces the EQ's output by those frequencies. a extremly clean sidechain EQ

I'll code one of those up in Flowstone for the FL users soon, when I have time, I need one too. It's really similar to vocoding though.
