How To Efficiently Use EQ Curves To Make Sound Clearer

Weekend is coming, it is time for learning sound knowledge again. 

In the process of music production, we often encounter some "noise" that we don't need in each track, resulting in a sound that is not clean enough. However, these noises may only appear in a specific frequency range, and it is difficult for a novice to immediately reflect on what frequency band these unnecessary sounds are. Therefore, we provide an efficient way for you to “discover” the location of these noises. After removing these sounds one by one, you will get a stunning result.

The method recommended in this essay suggests using multiband EQs for use. First we use a very narrow Q-value and make it a very large Boost (about +15 dB or so), and then we will “sweep” this band across all frequency ranges and use it to find out what is annoying and annoying. The noise, when we hear something unsuitable and discordant, we stop at this point and cut the band down. The degree of reduction depends on different circumstances, depending on your musical aesthetics.

Remember that each time we cut back uses a very narrow Q-value, those undesired frequencies will only appear in specific frequency segments. If not, we may have some problems before EQ. We must go back and check. . Repeat the above actions several times until we remove unnecessary sounds one by one. Finally, we turn this EQ on and off, and you'll find that the sound is clearly clearer, but if there is something unnatural, there may be too many cuts.

This method is recommended to be performed when the song is about to be completed. Looping is repeated in the most complicated part of the sound to correct these sounds. These "unnatural resonance sounds" are often found early on in cheap recording techniques. I often use samples of funk break. He has some interesting sounds and paragraphs that bring many interesting effects to the song, but there are many unnecessary frequencies in the sound quality that need to be "appropriately" eliminated because doing Too much will lose its features, and balance can be achieved to get the most vivid voice.
