Beginners Guide to Equalizers

#1

Lately I’ve been trying to learn more about audio and a variety of different areas. While some of our community have way more knowledge than I do right now I found this great article that broke down the basics of how to use an equalizer and how they work. While I’m know the soundcore app Comes with some preset EQ settings you can also make the changes yourself. This article makes it pretty easy to understand how to get started with that and just even understanding what the presets are doing to your music. One of the things I learned was how you should always subtract first before trying to increase if you don’t actually know what you are doing. Hope this article help you all get even more enjoyment out of your music. Happy reading!

The first thing which is to mention :
Where to find a player with 10 frequencies adjustable.
I know two I use : banshee (LINUX) and jetAudio (ANDROID)

There are others of course.
Rhythmbox (LINUX) an eq can be added and
Music Player (ANDROID) I know.

I don’t know what players have equalizers under MS and OS.

And do not forget bad recording of the music can not be repaired by an equalizer. :smiley:

Thanks for sharing this! I have no knowledge of how to do all this and looks like a pretty long article so will have to read it later.

I’ve been playing around with it a little and it can totally change how a song sounds and give it a totally different feel

I started with just a little change and then wanted to see what bing changes felt like for fun and it was rather interesting

Lol I remember messing around with them some time ago and didn’t know what I was doing so really screwed up the sound :joy:

Long time ago so hopefully I’m more knowledgeable now

Never forget your personal hearing ability when making individual adjustments.
In my opinion many of those preset adjustments are useless.

When we both would be listening to a song, you might hear it in “another way” than I do. :smiley:"
