But equalization, with its veritable rainbow of possibilities, is quite possibly the most challenging part of an already challenging task. Fortunately, Bobby Owsinski believes that despite the hurdles there are basic followable steps that should make the equalizing process much easier.<\/p>\n<p>For starters, cut if the goal is to make sounds come in clearer and boost if the goal is a distinctly different sound. Also, listen for errant types of noise you wish to eliminate and cut at specified frequencies to do so.<br \/>\nFor example, cut at around 250Hz to get rid of a muddy effect. Make the cut at around 500Hz if the sound that&#8217;s bothering you is somewhat obstructed, or sounds honky.<\/p>\n<p id=\"takeawayheader\">Key Takeaways:<\/p>\n<ul id=\"takeaways\">\n<li id=\"takeaway1\">Because of the sheer wealth of possibilities, equalization is one of the most challenging and difficult aspects of recording.<\/li>\n<li id=\"takeaway2\">A basic guideline, is to cut if your goal is to,make sound come in more clearly.<\/li>\n<li id=\"takeaway3\">To help clarify the noise value of a muddy sounding recording you&#8217;ll want to cut in at about 250Hz.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p id=\"quote\">&#8220;Boost if you\u2019re trying to make things sound different. Sometimes you don\u2019t want clarity as much as you want something to sound just different or effected. That\u2019s the best time to use boost EQ.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"readmoretext\">Read more: <\/span><a id=\"source\" href=\"http:\/\/bobbyowsinskiblog.com\/2018\/04\/11\/simple-eq-tips\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">http:\/\/bobbyowsinskiblog.com\/2018\/04\/11\/simple-eq-tips\/<\/a>\n<\/div>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Recording is already a difficult process, fraught with chalkenges.
