(stereo channels)
Stereo channel
MID
equaliza-
tion consists
of two controls
with fixed band
centers: 2.5kHz
high Mid and
250 Hz low Mid.

mono channel
MID

band that can be "slid" around,
stereo EQ is just two separate
fixed bands, one at the high and
one at the low end of the mid-

A few more tips on
equalization.
Q
Almost everything can be
improved with equaliza-
tion. At least TRY various
settings.
Q
Equalize with your ears.
Don't stare at the EQ knob:
close your eyes and
listen
.
Q
Focus on the overall mix.
You’re far better off EQ-ing
your channels so that every
instrument has its own
place in the mix, rather
than trying to make each
instrument sound good in
isolation.
Q

Q

people will be hearing
both left and right speak-
ers equally so it’s best not
to pan things dead left or
right.
