I've had this plugin since it came out. Now I know how to use it.

[@samsmyers]

great!

The fabfilter eq is not an expensive plug-in for everything it’s capable of. Definitely the best of its kind.

[@joemillo]

This is an incredible tutorial. Thank you for sharing your knowledge in such an easy-to-understand way. I will certainly get more from this EQ because of what I learned here. Awesome!

[@spiral-m]

I just got round to finally looking at the plug-in in more depth and using it more effectively. It's really a great piece of software and you helped me discover some more tools. Thank you so much!

[@ParlanceOpus]

2 awesome features you forgot: 1) click the little 'cog' icon next to the Q and it will slightly narrow the Q automatically as you boost, like an API EQ does. 2) The 'A' next to output volume auto-adjusts the output gain to be the same as you boost or cut frequencies. 👍

[@kubapianoYT]

Hello:) amazing video! I have one question - because I am writing sort of cinematic music and I am a beginner - is it possible to do a final mix using only intuition and to listen a piece on diffrent headphones and monitors? Just to ballance particular instruments in my partiture by experimenting with dynamics?

[@hankslapper]

Thanks dude , just bought that bad boy so very helpful

[@samsmyers]

great!

[@OfficeofthePacific]

What I don't understand about this plugin is the input and output and makeup gain. If we are only shown the output meter to the far right how do we know what the input is? Also, by adding gain how do we know if we cannot match it to the original input signal?

[@brucelai7]

Thanks for the tutorial 🙏

Glad to hear that!

[@shawnriffninjareacts7316]

Great video, I just recently picked up this plugin to help with my metal mixes. I haven't worked with multiband eq's before, this plug-in is for sure a game changer and far as getting instruments to sit better in the mix.

[@Unknown-qr2jl]

Can u help me/explain to me on how to install it(I just bought and I'm new to all of this)

[@shawnriffninjareacts7316]

@@Unknown-qr2jlThis plugin is a VST. So when you install it take notice of where the installation path is. Example: C:\Program Files\Vstplugins. After it is installed, based on what DAW you use. Make sure your plugins have that directory selected to search for it. Once you rescan your plugins it should be visable in your DAW when you search for plugins.

Great tutorial, thanks!

Was looking for more on "EQ match" and how to maybe tune your speakers to your room using Pro EQ- How to EQ match The left side of the plug-in and the right side of the plug-in separately based off of recorded pink noise coming out of your left and right speakers individually.

[@user-kv6bj5yp7c]

Thank you 🙏

[@truthseeker11]

Just by looking at the wave form in the plugin, how can you tell if something is "muddy" or not?

[@SteveStockmalMusic]

Got it, love it, use it on everything !!!! I need to remember the Dynamic EQ, very useful !! And sadly I suck at side-chaining in general ...so thanks for the reminder that I need to use that technique to get better at it. Fab Filter RULES !!!!!!! Peace !!!!!

thanks!

@@Unknown-qr2jl You should post that question on the general questions, not answering on mine 😉🎶

[@Eduaro2U]

Remarkable. I bought this plugin a couple of days ago and have been flummoxing and floundering around - being totally amazed but almost totally lost at the same time. Though realising that Pro-Q•3 is head and shoulders above Logic Pro X's pretty good - but basic EQs. Now, thanks to you sir, I am even more amazed at what this thing can do. I suspect that FabFilter has increased the intelligence level of the human race through the implementation of some highly intelligent and creative R&D. Wouldn't that be good.

[@samsmyers]
