equalization An equalizer (commonly abbreviated as EQ) shapes the sound of
incoming audio by changing the level of specic frequency bands. Equalization is one
of the most commonly used audio processes, both for music projects and in video
post-production work. You can use EQ to subtly or signicantly shape the sound of an
audio le, instrument, or project by adjusting specic frequencies or frequency ranges.
Event When you import video, audio, and still images, or record directly into
Final Cut Pro, the source media les (your raw footage) are stored in Events. An Event
is similar to a folder that can hold dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of video clips,
audio clips, and still images. Each Event in the Event Library refers to a folder on your
hard disk that contains the original source media les, any render les related to your
media, and a database le that keeps track of where everything is.
