eq tip

Post by jason burns » Sat Oct 20, 2007 5:00 am

so, i've made a discovery in the realm of eqing. if you hear a sound that you like, be it a snare, kick, bass, what have you. sample that shit. and then run it through a analyzer so you can SEE whats happening where. and whats NOT happening where. do it. you'll be glad you did.

Great discovery indeed! Just made it too :D
You don't need to sample anything tho. Just put an analyzer on your master and solo tracks.

could be a dangerous tip too... if you gonna boost the less-freqs and cut the too-much-freqs all your instruments and samples will be in the same freq range. what does that means ? everything is in the same range and will push away everything thats in the same range.

its like putting all kinda animals in 1 cage in the zoo....even you got lots of other cages for every animal

ps: analyzers are still quite handy if you dont have monitors

The vocoder does (in eq analysis terms) the same thing that a graphic EQ does, giving you a running readout of a certain amount of bands of the frequency spectrum, and where things sound and take up space in that spectrum.

send a channel through the mod section of the vocoder (on vocoder mode), and you will see the readout over the mod level section.

Put it on 32 band, and its basically showing 32 divisions of the 20 hz - 20 Khz range. Not sure how the bands are broken up, and the documentation is vague in this.

Really though, you'd want to run something like Inspector, which is far easier and straight forward (vocoders are inherently sort of difficult to understand unless you've had a crash course in it)...

If you actually want to run it as an EQ, you dont get the readout.

Do any of these (Inspector, Paz, etc) work standalone, so that you can analyse ALL the audio going out from, or coming in to, the computer?
