Parametric Equalizer
The parametric equalizer consists of four filter bands for adjusting the
overall sound of the music track. Each band is a filter with a typical
"bell shape". Within a certain frequency range and around an
adjustable middle frequency, you can increase or reduce the signal
level gain. The width of this frequency range is called bandwidth. The
bandwidth is defined by the Q value. The higher the Q value, the
narrower and steeper the filter curve.
You can influence the basic sound of the mix by increasing and
decreasing the broadband to give it more "depth" (lower center =
200-600 Hz) or more "air" (highs = 10Khz). You can also decrease
the narrow bandwidth (high Q value) in the frequency response, e.g.
to remove disruptive frequencies.
Graphic: The resulting frequency path of
the equalizer is displayed in the graphic.
The frequency is spread out horizontally,
the increase or decrease of the respective
frequency, vertically.
The blue bullets 1-4 symbolize the four wave bands. You can move
them around with the mouse until you find your desired frequency
response.
Peak meter: The peak meter gives you control over the output level
of the equalizer. The adjacent master gain controller can be used to
balance the level with the EQ.
