EQ (Equalization)

Equalization (EQ) is a tool used to adjust the balance of different frequency ranges in an audio signal. Think of it as a way to shape the sound by emphasizing or reducing specific sounds—like making vocals clearer, reducing background noise, or enhancing bass. EQ can target high frequencies (treble), midrange sounds, or low frequencies (bass), helping to create a more balanced and pleasing sound. It's widely used in audio recording, mixing, and live sound to improve clarity and ensure all elements of a mix are heard appropriately.
