Do you prefer to use a filter to take out frequencies or EQ individual elements?
Or does it depend on what you're trying to achieve?

Filters are a lot more agressive. I only use them if i want to cut all low, mid or high. Also for modulation on synthsounds ofcourse.
I use eq to cut and boost frequencies, like little surgical insicions (probably didn't spell that right.. fuck it i'm dutch
)

EQ for mixing, filters for sculpting.

You only got the s and the c the wrong way around.
Damn sentence structure in Dutch is hard though. I have a Dutch friend who tries to teach me... I usually end up in tears.

that.
EQ is more subtle and will produce a more natural-sounding result if thats what you want.

goddamn it third time posting in this thread thank you updates
it depends on if you want a harsh or soft sound and wanna get anal on shit
as always it depends on your choice of sound sculpture and method of working
