155 Tutorial 7 – Mixing and adding effects
Equalization
Each audio track has a dedicated, built-in equalizer (EQ). It is located just above the effects bin in
both the Inspector and in the Console View.

One of the primary uses for EQ is to prevent different instruments from stepping on each other in the
frequency spectrum. One instrument might be intended for a certain frequency range, but extends
into another instrument's frequency range. This can easily happen with drums and bass. If you turn
down the overlapping frequency range for one of the instruments, it will allow the other instrument to
stand out better in the mix.
Let's give it a try:
1. Solo the tracks named Tension Climbing and Chirppy Synth .
2. Add the Sonitus:fx Equalizer plug-in to the Tension Climbing track.
The Sonitus:fx Equalizer interface appears.
3. Grab one of the numbered nodes and drag it around. Boost the selected band until you find the
frequency range that interferes with
Chirppy Synth . When you find it, turn down the selected
band by dragging the node downward.
Experiment with the other controls on the EQ to get the best possible results. As with the
compressor plug-in, this approach can be applied to any track you like.
Tip: Try to cut the band around 1kHz.
