Equalization

Equalization is a process used to adjust the balance of frequencies in an audio signal. It is used to boost or cut certain frequencies to achieve a desired sound.

Equalization

Equalization is a process used in audio production and sound engineering to balance the frequency content of an audio signal. It is used to adjust the frequency response of an audio system or device, such as a loudspeaker, microphone, or recording device. Equalization is used to correct for deficiencies in the frequency response of a system, to compensate for changes in the environment, or to create a desired sound.

Equalization is typically done by adjusting the gain of different frequency bands. This is done by using a graphic or parametric equalizer, which is a device that allows the user to adjust the gain of different frequency bands. The user can adjust the gain of each frequency band to achieve the desired frequency response.

Equalization can also be done using a compressor or limiter. A compressor reduces the dynamic range of an audio signal by reducing the gain of the loudest parts of the signal. A limiter reduces the gain of the loudest parts of the signal to a predetermined level. Both of these devices can be used to equalize an audio signal.
