Parámetros de Control

Auto QY/N
  • Enable Intelligent Dynamic Q

Effect:

  • ON: Q narrows as you increase the gain
  • OFF: Q fixed

Useful for:

  • natural boosts
  • avoid artificial sounds
Make-Up GaindB
  • Range: approximately −12 → +12 dB
  • Compensates for volume variations

important after drastic EQs

Low Shelf FreqHz
  • Operating frequency (~20–300 Hz)
Low Shelf GaindB
  • Low boost/cut
Low Shelf Q
  • Shelf slope/curve

Effect:

  • Low Q → smooth transition
  • High Q → more defined
Low FreqHz
  • Frequency (~50–300 Hz)
Low GaindB
  • Boost/cut
Low Q
  • Bandwidth

Useful for:

  • boom / body
Low Mid FreqHz
  • ~200Hz – 800Hz
Low Mid GaindB
Low Mid Q

Critical area:

  • “mud”
  • boxiness
High Mid FreqHz
  • ~1kHz – 5kHz
High Mid GaindB
High Mid Q

Area:

  • presence
  • attack
High FreqHz
  • ~4kHz – 12kHz
High GaindB
High Q

Check:

  • brilliance
  • harshness
High Shelf FreqHz
  • ~5 kHz – 20 kHz
High Shelf GaindB
High Shelf Q

For:

  • air
  • opening
High Pass FreqHz
  • Low cuts below a frequency

Typical:

  • voice: 80–120 Hz
  • guitar: 60–100 Hz

eliminates noise / rumble

Low Pass FreqHz
  • High cuts above a frequency

Typical:

  • 8–12 kHz → warmer sound

Reduces:

  • harshness
  • digital noise

Pro Tips

  • Excessive boosts → artificial sound
  • Q too high → unnatural “notch” effect
  • too many changes → loss of naturalness
  • always balance with Make-Up Gain
