[@AvvieLanche]

HUGE help, Patrick! I did NOT know I could change the Q by clicking the point.

[@flygrind]

I don’t think you can do it on iOS

[@liesbetleroy]

Great explanation Patrick, thank you so much!

[@hersheybell8444]

Great overview Patrick. Two "super-user" tips - one thing I like to do is a take a narrow EQ on a specific band EQ channel .. turn it all the way up to 24db and scan around for unwanted sounds (e.g. harsh sounds or muddy sounds) and then when I've found the frequency, take it way down to eliminate it. (You can stack multiple EQs if you need to deal with more than 4 frequencies - just pay attention to overall volumes. Second, if you use reverb sends, add an EQ to your reverb track and lo-pass and hi-pass it - you'll find the reverb is clearer and more dramatic sounding.

Really useful explanation. Most videos on EQ skip over the basics

[@RichTones]

Thanks for the tips Patrick ✌️I usually start with trying some of the EQ presets and slightly tweak them if needed. There are so many great settings that will fit any track.

[@jinnsane6712]

[@valium-fm7236]

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Step one: turn the volume down to zero. 👍

[@VivienneVisuals]

hi, why doesnt it let me change the q value on my mac?

[@instrumentalmusic68]

Thanks for tips on EQ. I've always find it confusing. I understand frequency range and filters, but not when or where to apply in frequency range. You mention pre-set EQ in Garageband itself, which sounds easier to use than relying on guess work. Could you remind where to locate the pre-set EQ please? Thanks .

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

From 03:40 onwards in this video 👍

[@instrumentalmusic68]

Yes I did see that section you referred to. However, I've just noticed the same question asked by Larry's Tunes below, has the answer I was looking for. (e.g. where the EQ located)

[@pageluvva]

Damn I never knew there were presets to try in EQ. Many thanks! I am kind of confused how to get there. Can you drop me a quick "how to"? Many thanks. If not I will fool around until I find it.

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

The presets? Open the EQ inside Smart controls and click on the drop down menu to the left.

[@pageluvva]

@@TheGaragebandGuide Thanks so very much for the quick response. You are amazing and I truly love what you do. I am with you on the Garageband/Life journey........

[@DaeJhuan]

It don’t work for mine

[@Queenweezy]

Why can’t we have these eq presets on iPad 💔

[@DanielAguilar777]

👍

[@georgesmith540]

Ha im watching because I will be mixing bagpipes

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

GOOD LUCK

[@chrisezelle]

👍🏼❤️

[@WhiteNacho]

Why is there no visual!?

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

What do you mean?

[@WhiteNacho]

Well earlier I was at work watching this video on my phone and I was getting sound with no motion. But now that I'm home everything is fine on my computer view.

[@MrStevepowell7253]

You went too fast in places. For example how did you get the preset eq menus to appear?

[@TheGaragebandGuide]

Should have spelled that out perhaps. You can see me accessing the EQ preset menu multiple times during the demos from 3:38 onwards.
