EQ comprehension question

[Martin (Punky) Sopart]

Hello team!

By using the EQ3 7-Band I made the following settings for an audio track:
High pass, 150 Hz, 6 dB/octave,
Low shelf, 500 Hz, -4 dB,
Low pass, 12 kHz, 6 dB/octave.

Although I only substracted here the peak of the track became higher.
Does that make sense?

Thank you and best wishes! / Martin

Hi Martin,
don't you have a cue setting somewhere, which could introduce a resonant
frequency, especially on the one which is set to 150 Hz, and maybe the
one at 500 Hz.

The cue can be called width in some equalizers, and I don't know about
this 1. If it's called cue, try decreasing it, if it's called width, try
increasing they mean the same thing in reverse.
Hope it helps,
Cheers,
JPR

Hello Jean-Philippe!

Thanks for that.

For the high pass the Q setting is without effect.
Here the dB per octave setting is the equivalent.
And the lowest value 6 dB does not higher the peak.

But the low shelf Q setting is 1.0 by default.
Maybe a bit narrow.
That should caused the higher peak.

Thanks again and best wishes! / Martin
